I’ve already got some college credits. Should I apply as a first-year or transfer student?
You’ll apply to NAU as a transfer student if:
- you’ve graduated from high school, AND
- you’ve earned 12 or more transferable credits from another college or university
You’ll apply to NAU as a freshman if:
- you’ll graduate high school within one year, or
- you’ve earned fewer than 12 college credits since graduating from high school, or
- you’re dual-enrolled but have not yet graduated from high school
