I got an email from Northern Arizona office of admissions about that. It had a real person’s name from the admissions office on the email and it says its from Northern Arizona University but look at the site. It’s http://www.northernarizonau.org/apply/ it leaves me wondering because how much it leaves out. And I can just get a random person from there and put it on there.

Anyone use this and know if its real.
I registered on their site so that’s how they could get my info. Its definitely within the realm of possibilities that they were contacting me but its not their site. Their site is nau.edu this is northernarizonau.org.

Probably not a scam. The bottom of the page identifies it as the real Northern Arizona University. It would be dangerous for a scam operation to make this claim.

Universities get lists of prospective students from a number of sources. Your name your have been on a list. Universities can separate their recruiting websites from their academic websites.

what are the pros and cons of this school?

is it affiliated with Phoenix University (online) because i guess i was accepted to NAU but i dont really remember applying

No it is no affiliated with Phoenix University. Its actually a school that you have to apply for and get an acceptance letter in two weeks tops (from what I’ve read). I’m actually researching myself if it is a qualified school myself and have gotten mixed reviews. All in all tomorrow is the deadline for applications (Dec. 1), early decision and its also free. Only takes 10 mins tops to fill it out, so you have nothing to loose I suppose. Hope this information kind of helped even though it is very vague

Right now, I’m a freshman in community college to get my general studies out of the way. I’d like to be an english major, and transfer to either NAU or U of A for my junior year. Which college do you guys think is better, for my degree and in general? And WHY?

Hello,

The other poster had a great suggestion in that you should look at both campuses before making a decision. If you’re attending community college in Arizona you can see how all of your credits transfer to both schools at www.aztransfer.com. I’d also encourage you to look at the websites for both English departments to try and get a better feel for how each English department works. You should think about the differences in each campus. NAU provides a smaller community setting in a great outdoor region in Flagstaff, while UA is a much larger campus in more of a big city setting. Each campus has their own advantages and the most important thing is finding the right school for you. I would try using the admissions offices of both schools as a resource, as they can help you set up visits or answer any other questions you have.

Good luck,
Ryan

I prefer to go north on Hwy 89, then I-40 east to Flagstaff. It also takes about 90 minutes and is very pretty.
