What to Expect at UAA

The campus in summer is especially pleasant, with numerous bike trails, hiking trails, a few lakes, and lots of wildlife to enjoy. The Consortium Library, the Campus Bookstore, classrooms, and other facilities are within walking distance of housing and the Seawolf Shuttle also makes regular rounds.

• Finding Your Way Around Campus

  UAA's campus is spread out over about a mile radius and can be confusing for newcomers to navigate. If you are staying in UAA housing during your residency, this map of the residential area of campus may be useful to you.
