Busrars Office at North American University

Bursar’s Office

Bursar’s Office also known as Business Office, is responsible for the billing of tuition and fees for admitted students, creating payment plans to help students get their accounts paid off, disbursing the FAFSA stipend checks, issuing the book vouchers for those whom have FAFSA credits, accepting payments for verification letters, transcripts and application fees, parking tags as well as the housing and meal plan services provided by the university.

NAU Bursar’s Office takes pride in our accurate and immediate response to your inquiries and our ability to take the appropriate actions regarding all student accounts in compliance with county, state, and federal government regulations, and responding to student and parent inquiries about these financial issues in a helpful, informed and courteous manner through team work with NAU Financial Aid Office.

Expecting a Refund?

We know you’re anxiously awaiting your refund…and we’re moving as quickly as possible. To get more information about your refund check, email sa@na.edu or take a look at our important announcement section.

Credit balance refunds typically result from schedule adjustments, over-payment, financial aid, or confirmation deposits. Regardless of who paid the bill (except for parent loan refunds designated for the parent borrower, or when refunded to a credit card), refunds are issued in the student’s name.

By default, credit balance accounts with financial aid will be issued a refund within 14 business days of the posted credits exceeding charges. Mailed checks may take up to three weeks to be received by the student. Students have the option to enroll in direct deposit for tuition account refunds. Direct deposit allows the refund to be conveniently delivered into the designated bank account.
