We’ve got you covered

^{Student support services still available}

Since the difficult but necessary decision was made to suspend in-person classes in response to COVID-19, we’ve been working to transition to online and alternative program delivery.  

Though the online setting may feel different, our commitment to student success remains paramount.

Key student support services are still available either online or with limited in-person services to support you as you complete your course, semester or program.
