Makeup Day(s)
The winter storms in January caused numerous days of class cancellations. Per federal regulations, all cancelled classes must be re-scheduled and made-up. The vast majority of our programs are on a four-day school week, which allows for most classes to be re-scheduled on the following Fridays. For most programs, that means we will be having Friday classes through the month of February. Please check with your instructors for more detailed information.
