Northern Arizona University
Northern Arizona University is a little out of the way, but it’s one of the most
affordable state universities in Arizona. Their online programs are affordable, and they
accept transfer credits from almost all community colleges in Arizona. That means you
can complete a four year degree, with half of your classes at the price of a community
college.
Snagged yourself a scholarship? With most universities, a full tuition scholarship
doesn't actually cover all four years of school. The scholarships only give you money
for the tuition rate at the time that you received the scholarship, but tuition continues to
go up while you’re in school, so by the time you graduate, your scholarship covers less
and less. At NAU, their fixed tuition rates makes sure this doesn't happen. The price of
your degree will be the same even if tuition goes up.
Not a fan of large schools? NAU has “a smaller campus with all the amenities as larger
universities” so you can have all the same experiences without getting lost in the crowd
(Mr. Carle, Music Education and Performance).
