Student resource guide

This resource guide was developed based on the results of the student outreach survey sent to students enrolled in courses offered by the Department of Psychological Sciences at the end of the Fall 2020 semester. The goal of this project is to provide students with information about needed resources. All of the listed resources are available to all students unless noted otherwise.
If you need additional help email student.outreach@nau.edu. This email address is monitored by graduate students in the Department of Psychological Sciences and is intended to help students connect with needed resources.
