Benefits of summer term

Summer courses are a smart option for students who want to get the most out of their university experience. Some advantages of summer courses include:

  • getting ahead on major requirements
  • knocking out prerequisites or liberal studies
  • improving your GPA
  • having more time to study
  • balancing out the course load you have planned for this academic year

Most summer courses are available online, so you can be in class from anywhere. The course list is subject to change, and current students can view the most up-to-date information on available courses in LOUIE. Full course descriptions are listed on LOUIE and in the Academic Catalog.

To enroll in a for-credit summer course, you must apply and be admitted to NAU.
