The dormitory, at 121 Kansas City Street, is open year-around and houses a cafeteria-style dining room. Other features include public computers in the commons area and available WiFi access.

Other campus locations (listed below) offer a wide variety of degree programs, but no on-campus housing is available.
Athletics
NAU’s Rapid City campus was home to two collegiate sports – volleyball and rodeo. The mascot is the Maverick.
The Maverick women won the NAIA National Volleyball Championship in December 2006 at the end of a perfect season — 41-0. It was the second national title in volleyball since the arrival of Coach Todd Lowery in 2002. Lowery was named 2006 NAIA Region III Volleyball Coach of the Year.
NAU’s Maverick rodeo team—both men and women—competed in the Great Plains Region of the National Intercollegiate Rodeo Association. With the fall season of competition completed, both are in the number one position. Several NIRA champions call NAU Rapid City home.
History
National American University was established in 1941 as a one-year secretarial school by Clarence Jacobson. It was called National College of Business and was located in a downtown Rapid City building. In 1960, Jacobson had the building that now houses administration for the Rapid City campus constructed at 321 Kansas City Street and moved National College to that location.

Question: college interview help?I need your help I have a college interview at National American University and im nervous. is it like a job interview or so? and what type of question will they ask? I am not good at interviews. thanks for all your help.24 months ago
Best AnswerActually, I know a lot about those questions because I went through it also and was nervous. You will be asked a lot about your extra curricular activities at school. For example, they may ask what a certain club is and what you did while you were a member. You will also be asked why you chose this particular college and what major you are exploring (they do not expect freshman or sophomores to declare a major, but it is helpful if you have something in mind). You will also be asked about your home life, like how many siblings and do you or have you any family members in college. Are any of your relative alums. Stuff like that. It is a little easy going, but still professional. All you have to do is show a lot of interest in wanting to attend and you will impress them. That is what I did when I wanted accepted into Hiram College and the 6 other colleges that I applied too but turned down. |
