NAU’s CEFNS students may be eligible for grants to help offset tuition

Students of the College of the Environment, Forestry, and Natural Sciences may qualify for departmental grants offered through CEFNS. Grant awards are based on certain criteria, including academic standing, degree pursuit, and GPA. To find out what grants you may be eligible for, visit our department pages.

Additional options for grant awards

In addition to departmental grants, you may also qualify for other grants available from many sources including the federal government, state government, or from the university itself.  Because they typically do not require repayment, grants can be considered “gift aid”.  Under certain circumstances (such as Return to Title IV), a portion of the grant funds may need to be repaid.  Additionally, some grants require that certain criteria be met so funds do not have to be repaid. Whether you are a resident or non-resident of Arizona, as an NAU student you might qualify for various grant awards.  This funding is often based on your financial need.
