National American University (NAU) is an online, accredited, for-profit university with locations at Ellsworth Air Force Base, Joint Base Charleston, and Naval Submarine Base King's Bay. NAU is owned by National American University Holdings, Inc. The university is headquartered in Rapid City, South Dakota. Henley-Putnam School of Strategic Security (formerly Henley Putnam University) is a part of National American University.[1]

National American University is organized into three academic divisions: College of Business, Technology, and Health Management; Henley-Putnam School of Strategic Security; and Harold D. Buckingham Graduate School. Over 100 associate degree, bachelor’s degree, master's, doctoral, and certificate programs are offered. Most of NAU’s academic programs are on the 11-week quarter system and start on a monthly basis.

National American University is accredited by the Higher Learning Commission.

NAUH is facing major financial challenges, and the company has laid off numerous workers, amounting to a $1.5 million cut in yearly payroll costs. [2] On January 22, 2019, NAUH announced that "the Company had $0.5 million of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents and a working capital deficiency of $8.7 million. These factors, among others, raise substantial doubt regarding the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern."[3][4]

History

National American University has transitioned into having 100% online educational programs after having 21+ years of online educational experience.[5]

Origins - National College of Business (NBC)

National American University was established in 1941 as a one-year secretarial school by Clarence Jacobson. It was called National College of Business (NCB) and was located in a downtown Rapid City building. In 1960, Jacobson had the building that now houses administration for the Rapid City campus constructed at 321 Kansas City Street and moved National College to that location.

In 1962, NCB was acquired by Harold D. Buckingham and members of his family. Shortly after the Buckinghams purchased the school, a period of growth began which led to the construction of the classroom buildings, dormitories, a library, gymnasium, and an auditorium.

NCB was granted collegiate accreditation as a junior college by the Accrediting Commission of the Association of Independent Colleges and Schools in 1966. Senior college accreditation was granted in 1970.

The 1970s brought growth, with the addition of several branch locations in the Midwest and Rocky Mountain regions. This trend toward reaching out to other communities resumed in the 90s with the addition of more campuses nationwide.

In 1985, NCB earned accreditation by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools (now called the Higher Learning Commission).

The university began offering online classes in 1996.

The Beginning of National American University (NAU)

In 1997, the National College of Business became National American University.

In 2009, National American University became part of National American University Holdings, a publicly traded corporation.

In 2012, the main Rapid City location was moved to Mount Rushmore Rd., south of Rapid City, which also houses the university's central administration offices.

In 2017, National American University purchased Henley-Putnam School of Strategic Security. [6]

In 2018, Robert Gravely, a former NAU official, filed a lawsuit alleging that the school defrauded the United States government out of millions of dollars in a student aid program, unlawfully paid bonuses to university employees for recruiting students and rigged the accreditation for its medical assisting program. [7] NAUH also mortgaged real property for $8 million in loans. [8] In 2018, more campus closings were also planned. [9]

On December 28, 2018, the NAUH Board agreed to voluntarily delist from the NASDAQ. [10]

On February 15, 2019, NAUH announced Thomas Bickart as their new Chief Financial Officer. Mr. Bickart was CFO at TCI College of Technology from 2013 to 2016 and later worked at EdisonLearning, Inc. to restructure its operations.

On March 16, 2019, National American University announced that most of its 24 ground campuses would be closed, except for Ellsworth Air Force Base and King's Bay Naval Submarine Base.[11][12][13]

On March 31, 2019, National American University granted honorary doctorates to several people in India, including Astrologer Dr Sohini Sastri. [14]
