(CHICAGO – September 6, 2005) Argosy University announced today
that it will assist students from universities in New Orleans,
southern Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama universities, which
have been closed for the foreseeable future due to the
devastation caused by Hurricane Katrina.
Argosy University will make available both on-campus and online
courses that might be able to permit dislocated students to
progress in their academic careers during this semester of
disruption. Students at a university forced to close by
Hurricane Katrina may register at any of Argosy University’s 13
campuses across the nation for courses, on a space-available
basis, for the fall terms.
Argosy University will waive tuition for dislocated students
who have already registered and paid tuition at their home
institution for the fall 2005 semester. If dislocated students
have not yet paid their tuition at their home institution, they
will be assessed the lesser of the current published tuition and
fees at the home institution, or Argosy University’s published
tuition and fees, as determined by the Argosy University campus
president.
“Argosy University acted today by offering educational
assistance to college students impacted by Hurricane Katrina,”
says Dr. Gregory O’Brien, president of Argosy University.
“Argosy University is concerned for the well-being of these
students, and this initiative is our way of reaching out with
compassion and benevolence to those affected. We pledge to do
all that we can to assist college students in the Gulf Coast
region to continue their education and continue in their lives.”
According to the American Council on Education, more than 30
colleges and universities in the Gulf Coast region have been
severely damaged by the hurricane, and possibly 100,000 students
have been displaced from their schools.
Argosy University offers doctoral, masters, and undergraduate
degree programs in psychology, counseling, education, business,
information technology, and organizational leadership. Doctoral
degree programs in clinical psychology (accredited by the
American Psychological Association), are available at several
Argosy University’s campuses. Argosy University will assist
dislocated Ph.D. and Psy.D. students on an individual basis.
Select associate’s degree programs in several health sciences
fields are available at Argosy University/Twin Cities, located
in Eagan, MN.
Argosy University has campuses in Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas,
Honolulu, Orange County (Santa Ana, CA), Phoenix, San Francisco
Bay Area (Port Richmond, CA), Sarasota, Schaumburg (IL),
Seattle, Tampa, Twin Cities (Eagan, MN), and Washington DC
(Arlington, VA).
