Will a repeated course still show on my transcript?

  • The latest course will have the notation "**Replaces a Prior Course**".
  • The latest grade received and credit earned will be considered in computing the grade point average.

Will I need an NNU post office box?

Traditional Undergraduate students will need an NNU post office box. The primary communication from professors, administrators and campus messages is the NNU e-mail system, but since not all information can or should be emailed, the secondary means is your NNU post office box. It is essential for you to have an NNU post office box. Note: It is the responsibility of the student to check their NNU e-mail and NNU post office box on a regular basis.

May I use an e-mail address other than the assigned NNU e-mail?

All students must use the NNU e-mail address for official NNU communications. It is not allowable to forward your NNU e-mails to an outside e-mail system, such as yahoo or gmail.

Why is my name not on the course roll of the class I am attending?

If your name does not appear on a course roll, you may not be officially registered for the course. Go to the Registrar's Office to resolve the problem.

Am I automatically dropped from a class I have never attended?

No. Unless you officially drop the course with an Add/Drop form or through the portal, you will remain enrolled in the class and will receive a detrimental final grade, as well as being charged the appropriate tuition and fees, if any, for that class.

Where should I start to apply for an Off-Campus study program?

Begin by contacting the NNU Study Abroad office at studyabroad@nnu.edu.
