The Northark Portal is your gateway to North Arkansas College information, designed with you in mind! Whether a prospective student, ongoing student, employee, or visitor, this site provides you with personalized access to a range of campus resources in a single location. Once signed in, you get access to a number of services tailored to fit your needs.

Logging Into Portal {expander}

In the upper right corner of the Portal, enter your username and password.

  • Username = first initial + last name + last 3 digits of ID#
  • Password = "p-" + ID# + last 2 digits of birth year
  • Example: John Doe ID# 123456 born 1955 = jdoe456, p-12345655

Note: If John Doe should have the suffix "Jr" then the following would occur:

  • Username = jdoejr456

All users are encouraged to change their password for better security through Microsoft's online self-service. This can be done at any time at your discretion.
