IMPORTANT UPDATE REGARDING SPRING ’20 QUARTER

We want to stress that the health and safety of our staff, students, and guests is our primary focus. We are working week-to-week on operational decisions and have an important update. Although the 3/30/2020 start is highly unlikely to begin as scheduled, we remain hopeful the situation will turn around and we will be able to designate an alternative start date soon. We are keeping our finger on the pulse as we receive updates from the government and other regulatory agencies. Weekly updates will be sent out to keep you informed.

For those new students who enrolled for the Spring 2020 quarter, if you have any questions, please contact your admission representative.
