YOU’RE SMART. YOU’RE SAVVY. YOU CAN REACH ANY SUMMIT.

YOU WERE BORN TO EXPLORE.

YOU’VE GOT SKILLS TO MASTER, RECORDS TO SET AND DISCOVERIES TO MAKE.

HERE, YOU’LL FORGE FRIENDSHIPS TO LAST A LIFETIME AND IDEAS TO CHANGE THE WORLD.

Pat Terhune, a geology major, pauses while working on a research project near the Chedotlothna Glacier in Denali National Park.

This is where you belong.Whether you’re an outdoors or indoors enthusiast, you’ll find what’s right for you. With 10 sports teams and more than 130 student clubs, there’s always something going on, in the sun, rain or snow, seven days a week.

Extremes rule here.24-hour sunshine in June, 30 below in January. Winter’s for sledding, ice climbing, cross-country skiing and snowboarding on our very own terrain park. Then say goodbye to the snow and hello to mud volleyball, rock wall, disc golf and trails!

COMMUNITYWILDERNESS TRIPS. MIDNIGHT PANCAKES. NANOOK TRADITIONS.

Get social.College is more than classes and exams. It’s also friendships and shared experiences. Concerts, standup and just hanging out. It’s celebrating Nanook Traditions like the Starvation Gulch bonfires and letting off some end-of-semester steam during SpringFest.

Home for now. Dorm life lets you wake up, pour a quick bowl of cereal, maybe shoot some pool and get to class. Then head to Wood Center, where students are constantly inventing, and reinventing, campus culture.

Micro or macro? It’s all here — small classes, professors who know you, grants so you can go deep into a project, travel programs so you can go far away. The simplest fact can lead to the biggest discovery. What will you find at UAF?

ACADEMICS AND RESEARCHRESEARCH GRANTS. INTERNSHIPS. STUDY ABROAD. HONORS PROGRAM.

Real life Go beyond theory. Open up with your own art show. Test your ideas with hands-on work. Find out if what you think you want is what you really want.
