CK you are talking to a student worker at the front desk. Your information doesn't hold up. They know nothing. In fact you know nothing.

Our campus kept accepting apps too. The April start students started as scheduled, The May and beyond starts will not. If the April students want to continue they can, but are given the refund option if they want it. The students scheduled to start (applied) are being called about the situation at the Teach Out campuses. The current students are being asked to attend a meeting about what is going on at the campus. As far as a refund given to those who have already started? No way. They are finishing their classes up so wth is there to reimburse? They will get credit for classes and will have the option of staying at the Teach Out campus (for how long is anyone's guess) or transfer to another AI. This is not googled info or speculation. It's what is happening at a Teach Out campus.

@Anonymous99718, apparently you didn't call the NYC Ai. They continued to sign people up in April. And about the refunds, it shouldn't be merely to those who ask.

They are offering complete refunds to students that started here in April should the student want one.

CK.., I suppose you missed the posts a few months back where classes at the affected schools were canceled and not started in April? Of course you did, it was not something you could google.

Summer and Fall quarter enrollment periods foretell the rest of the fiscal year. Look for more extreme cut if they can't at least come close to the numbers they project. Accreditation issues and Gainful Employment will also have impact.

Pretty good on the prediction of which schools were going to close... should have played the lottery. (15 / 51 = nearly 30%) Surprised to hear that is not going to impact the PGH office....really? It must be because everyone is jumping ship so no need to cut when there is nobody to cut. We'll see as the next few quarters go by which way will enrollment goes. (Prediction?)
