Advisor profiles


We’re here to help NAU students achieve their goals in SBS

Each undergraduate student has an advisor who can help plan courses by creating a degree plan mapping out each semester through graduation. All current undergraduate NAU students are encouraged to use NAU’s Appointment Planner to schedule an appointment with their assigned advisor. Questions can also be asked by emailing or calling your undergraduate NAU advisor. Not sure who your advisor is? Use your student center in LOUIE. Other ways to contact us:

Call 928-523-6540 for general advising questions or to be added to the queue during drop-in hours.

Drop-in hours are every Monday and Thursday 10:00 am – 11:30 am and 1:30 pm – 3:30 pm.
