There is student insurance available through NAU. It's the "major medical" and it's through Aetna. You can get it by semester and it comes out of your financial aid. And yes - sorry, the...
No, everything was pretty simple. I had everything done except the TB test (because that has to be done within a certain time period before classes begin) and was waiting around on that before I could...
It will just happen that you'll be closer to some people in your program than others, but it's a really good idea to try to mix it up and be friendly with everyone (even if you still have one go-to...
I applied to my first choice and didn't get in, and applied to my backup and did get in (and ended up being so very happy in my backup program that I'm glad I didn't get in to the first school). It's...

I worked full time and had kids during my pre-reqs and usually took 1-2 classes a semester. I would start slow, like some others have suggested, and if you find yourself not challenged, add another...
You're not too late! There are a number of "mature" students in my program that are your age or older, and both of the men in my program (there are 20 of us in my cohort) have a decade on you. It's...
