EduCat

EduCat is NMU's online learning portal. If you are an online student or take any course online, you must complete the Online Course Preparation Tutorial prior to accessing online courses. The tutorial is a self-paced module in NMU EduCat that provides information about the strategies, tools, and technology needed to be a successful online learner at Northern Michigan University. The tutorial is a one-time requirement. After completing it, you will gain access to all of your currently ongoing online courses within 20 minutes, and you will not be prompted to complete it again in future semesters.

Planning for Attendance

You can also start meeting people now through NMU's social community on Facebook, and Instagram and with the hashtag #shareNMU. The College of Graduate Studies and Research also has its own presence on LinkedIn.

Degree and Academic Information

All graduate students seeking a degree or certificate should work closely with their departmental academic advisor to schedule courses.

If you are a non-degree student you don’t need to meet with an advisor and can register yourself using these instructions.

Marvelous Marquette

Northern is located in the city of Marquette (pop. 20,000) in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. The city combines a dramatic natural wonderland of shoreline, forest and hills with a vibrant cultural community, progressive education, business and healthcare. Residents are known for their can-do attitude and warm friendliness, despite the area receiving over 180 inches of snow each year.
