Student Successes

Breanna Walter
NAU 100 Peer Instructor
Major: Business Administration/Marketing
Graduation Year: May 2014
"NAU has made a difference in my life by showing me how to become a leader and create my own path through life. This university has given me unlimited opportunities through events and activities that will help shape me into the best I can be. There are programs offered here for students that other colleges can't afford to have, or even think to have. The students really do come first here."

Graduation Year: May 2013
"Northern Arizona University has made a difference for my future, and for me simply because I am able to be the best version of myself while studying as a student and working as an employee. Being part of the Academic Transition Programs as an NAU 100 Peer Instructor has taught me to look deeper into the transition to college idea and realize how much of an impact I could potentially have on these freshman students. I have grown professionally while working in the University College ATP sector and hope to continue making a difference whether academically, or professionally, throughout the rest of my time I have here.
"NAU has given me a chance to expand my horizons as an employee for many different departments on campus, such as ATP, Residence Life, Learning Centers and Academic Affairs. As a senior this year, I plan to take advantage of everything NAU has to offer, as my time here is unfortunately coming to an end. I have loved living in Flagstaff and attending NAU, and that is why I find myself so happy and satisfied with my college education. My professors care about me, I care about my academics, and I find time to give everything I do equal attention. I love NAU!"

"Northern Arizona University has made a difference for me by showing me the tools to be successful. I have never seen such a large community that truly cares about every single one of its students the way NAU does. I really did choose the right university to attend. I have had nothing but positive experiences since starting my education here and I am already dreading having to leave. Northern Arizona University is truly a wonderful school."
