Cost Effectiveness
For students with the cost of college on their minds, the three year program is ideal. The figures on this link show the average academic cost of attendance (COA) for NAU. With one less year to pay for, three year students can noticeably cut their costs of college.

Benefits
- Three years instead of four saves an entire year of tuition, room, board, and books!
- Students with certain tuition waivers are eligible for summer funding, which covers a 12 credit semester load.
Financial Aid
Prospective Three Year Bachelor's Degree students are urged to begin the financial aid process on January 1. Because enrollment in this program will restrict the number of hours a student can work while enrolled, students are encouraged to actively pursue scholarship opportunities.
