Northwest Nazarene University

Northwest Nazarene University, based in Nampa, offers numerous online associate, bachelor's, master's, and doctoral programs. A Christian institution, this top Idaho university features programs in Christian studies, ministry, missional leadership, and family ministry. Additionally, practicing teachers planning for careers as education administrators can pursue one of NNU's five education leadership programs, all of which award a doctorate. Unlike other colleges that offer online programs, NNU allows college-age distance education students to live on campus. These degree-seekers can participate in campus life and access student resources in person. All online learners receive one-on-one academic and career counseling support. Application requirements vary by program and may require transcripts, standardized test scores, and recommendation letters. Both undergraduate and graduate programs charge the same per-credit tuition rate to in-state and out-of-state students. Incoming learners interested in financial aid should submit FAFSA results by the Jan. 15 application deadline.
