Advantages of a 90/30 program

You can earn a certificate and an associate degree at the community college, then transfer to NAU and choose from a variety of bachelor’s degree completion programs.
  • Flexible options. Northern Arizona University’s degree completion programs are available at convenient statewide locations throughout Arizona and online.
  • Maximize your time: NAU’s classes are scheduled in a cohort. Your degree completion plan will be clearly defined, so you’ll know what classes to take and when. This will enable you to efficiently complete your university coursework in one year.
  • Save money: This is an affordable path to earning a bachelor’s degree. Benefit from tuition cost savings at the community college, then pay for one year of NAU tuition at reduced rates, while you attend any of NAU’s statewide locations or online.
  • Take the next step in your career: Earn a bachelor’s degree and be prepared for leadership and growth opportunities in your field.
