Northern Arizona University is best known for their engineering program. This school is great for engineers. They only offer four different engineering degrees, but the engineering program is great. I am currently majoring in civil engineering and I love the program.

Northern Arizona University is known academically for it's business school as well as its restaurant management and hospitality program. They both partner with local businesses to give students hands on experience working with various companies. Socially, NAU is known for it's open and accepting community with plenty of activities held throughout the week for students to attend. There are centers set up for the local Native American community as well as a new center for LBGTQ resources. NAU has a strong Residence Life community and the university is constantly striving to keep the residence halls updated.

My school is best known for trying to be environmentally friendly. It's part of Flagstaff, AZ which is a low light city so we cut down on light pollution which make stars here are amazing. We are the home of the former planet Pluto!

This school is known for its great parks and forestry departments directly connected with the National Park Service and US Forest Service. Instruction is from people who work in the field and know what they are teaching about from personal on the job experience. The instructors are willing to meet with students on an individual basis to share thoughts and provide direction to help the students reach their career goals.

I think the thing NAU is known for is its seasons. It is the only state college in Arizona that experiences all four seasons.

My school is best known for the snow! We are approx. a half-hour away from skiing and snowboarding, which is why some people choose to attend.

Northern Arizona University is best known for its weather. Though the campus is located in the high desert, Flagstaff gets a lot of snow each year. Located around 10 minutes from Arizona's prime ski resort, NAU is a natural choice for avid skiiers and snowboarders alike. With sledding and other activities too look forward to, students can always find something to do. Also, they hope for snow days and perhaps a canceled final exam, something that is not unheard of around Flagstaff.
