university. What that means to you is that the author of your textbook may
be teaching you directly. Our faculty doesnt just teachthey do.
They create new technologies, initiate medical breakthroughs, discover ways
to improve the environment. Whatever your major, North Atlantic faculty has

Be a Big Fish Unlike at many large schools,
you wont get lost in the mix at North Atlantic. Were a big school
with a small-school atmosphere. We keep the student to faculty ratio below
10/1 so you can get individualized attention. 75% of our undergraduate courses
have 35 or fewer students. Two thirds have fewer than 20, so youll feel
like youre attending a much smaller schoolwhile reaping the benifits
of attending a well-funded research university.
