Frequently asked questions Accordion Closed

  • Why does Northern Arizona University need donations?
    • State funding, tuition, and fees do not cover the total cost of what it takes to provide a university education each year. Generosity from donors supports every facet of the student experience at Northern Arizona University. Your support opens doors for students to attend the university at a reasonable tuition rate and increases scholarships. Your generosity helps NAU attract and retain outstanding professors who cultivate student potential and provide a myriad of programs and research opportunities that allow Northern Arizona University to offer an exceptional education. Our donors help the university grow as an unparalleled institution of higher education.

    • Your contributions to Northern Arizona University are designated according to your wishes and directly benefit the areas you choose. You can designate your gift to more than one area. Simply note your preference on the gift form and how much you want to give to each area. It’s your gift-your choice.
  • Can I designate my gift to more than one area?
    • Of course. Clearly note on the gift form how much you want to give to each area, and we’ll take it from there.
