Scholarships & Impact

Scholarships and impact for NAU Foundation
Scholarships are at the heart of the NAU Foundation’s mission. They help adult learners overcome financial barriers,
stay enrolled, and complete their education.

Why Scholarships Matter

Unexpected expenses or funding gaps can delay progress or prevent students from finishing.

Foundation-supported scholarships help reduce those barriers so learners can focus on coursework,
persist through challenges, and reach graduation.
