<p>RE: Instructions for Enrolling Students Affected by Hurricane Katrina</p>
<p>The University of Connecticut will allow undergraduate students who are residents of Connecticut and currently enrolled or admitted to a school closed as a result of Hurricane Katrina to enroll temporarily at the UConn Storrs campus, or one of the five regional campuses. This message will provide you with instructions regarding how to complete the temporary non-degree enrollment process for Fall 2005 at the University of Connecticut. </p>
<p>To take advantage of this offer, students must attend a special non-degree enrollment program on the Storrs campus. This program is designed to provide you with a successful transition to your temporary campus for fall 2005.</p>

<p>Very Important Information You Should Know Before Enrolling</p>
<p>All students must bring a photo ID to participate in the program.</p>
<p>Our goal is to provide you with personal service to help you make the most informed choices that will meet your educational needs. So that we may provide this type of service, plan to be on campus for several hours. We expect most students to complete the enrollment process by 1:00pm. </p>
<p>Eligibility for the tuition and related charges waiver will require proof of tuition payment to your home institution. Canceled checks, copies of checks, bank statements, paid fee bills etc., are the documents needed for verification.</p>
<p>Tuition related charges waiver does not include on-campus housing and meal plan services and fees. </p>
<p>Should you receive a tuition refund from your home institution, UConn will expect, in good faith, that you pay retroactively UConn tuition non-degree related charges.</p>
<p>Non-degree students are not eligible for Financial Aid. </p>
<p>UConn cannot guarantee transfer credit to your home institution.</p>
<p>You are limited to one semester of enrollment as a temporary non-degree student. Our hope is that you will be allowed to return to your home campus by the spring semester. </p>
<p>We look forward to assisting you with your educational goals. </p>
<p>Best Regards,</p>

<p>The Hartford Courant reported today that 15 of the 17 colleges and universities in CT will be making some kind of offers to displaced New Orleans college students. Included in the list were UConn and branches, the CSU system, Wesleyan, Trinity, Quinnipiac, Fairfield, Conn College. Notably MISSING from the list was Yale. Sad that a university with the resources of Yale has not yet stepped forward. Other Ivies have…Columbia, Brown, Dartmouth, U Penn, Cornell…so what’s up with Yale??</p>
<p>The following is part of what is posted on the Boston University Web site.</p>
<br>
<br>
<p>Tulane graduate and professional students may also contact BU schools and will be considered on a case-by-case basis. BUs Medical and Law Schools have already made arrangements for several Tulane students to attend BU programs this semester.>></p>

<p>Wow - so many universities. So a Tulane student rejected by his favorite might be able to go to his favorite, temporarily, at least. ;)</p>
<p>Article in the paper this morning: San Diego State has been taking in Tulane students. They also have room in the dorms for them. Classes just started.</p>
<p>simba - haven’t seen you for a while. Thank you for taking the time to make that compilation.</p>
<p>Worse things in life than being an Aztec, and having to deal with all that sun and sand!</p>
<p>Another to add to the list…East Carolina Univ - Greenville, NC is accepting students - sorry I don’t have any details tho</p>

<p>Stanford Law School is making room for displaced law students with highest priority going to third years.</p>
<p>Information from Duke. The actual link is posted on another thread.</p>
<p>"Duke would be pleased to accommodate up to 75 undergraduate students from those colleges and universities on the Gulf Coast that have had to close their doors. Students in good standing at their home college or university will be eligible to enroll at Duke as visiting non-degree students through Dukes continuing education division. Credit for any courses taken at Duke will be determined by the home institution.</p>
<p>Students eligible for this program are sophomores, juniors, and seniors from both North Carolina and South Carolina; siblings of current Duke students; and children of Duke faculty, staff, or alumni."</p>

<p>Fairleigh Dickinson University Reaches Out to Gulf Coast College and University Students</p>
<p>Teaneck, NJ (September 2, 2005) The president of Fairleigh Dickinson University, Dr. J. Michael Adams, announced today the University has developed a comprehensive program to assist college students displaced by the Gulf Coast hurricane disaster.</p>
<p>Traditional courses on both New Jersey campuses of the University as well as on-line offerings are available to these students. Counselors are prepared to work with the students to align courses with their current major. These students are eligible for awards of up to 50 percent off the Universitys posted tuition rate.</p>
<p>As an independent university with a public mission, we want to do what we can to help minimize the impact of Katrina on the local communities we serve, Adams said. With two campuses in New Jersey we are in a position to offer real help to students who have had their educational plans thwarted. In addition to the variety of academic programs and formats, housing is available on FDUs Metropolitan Campus in Teaneck.</p>
<p>Gulf Coast college students, whose schools have closed due to the disaster, are encouraged to speak with special counselors who will be in place beginning at 9 a.m. on Tuesday, September 6. While the University is focusing its efforts on New Jersey residents, students from other parts of the country who have been impacted by Katrina are equally welcome to attend the university. The admissions professionals who will be manning the phone will help students select the right FDU campus and schedule of courses to meet their needs. The counselors will be available at 1-800-338-8803.</p>
<p>Like other universities around the country, said Adams, Fairleigh Dickinson University has received inquiries from Gulf Coast college students and their parents and has moved to provide assistance. It is important to reach out to these students as quickly as possible and put a viable plan in place.</p>
<p>Recognizing the role that first responders play in a natural disaster of this magnitude, the University is prepared to offer these volunteers discounted tuition for the Spring 2006 semester.</p>
<p>Fairleigh Dickinson University has two campuses in New Jersey, the Metropolitan Campus in Teaneck and the College at Florham in Madison. As New Jerseys largest private university, Fairleigh Dickinson offers more than 100 undergraduate, graduate and doctoral programs to more than 11,000 students.</p>
<p>i dont know if dartmouth was mentioned as having offered a spot for academically qualified stranded students</p>
<p>Be careful about saying SMU. When my son was there at the end of the week, he was told IF they could get him into classes at this point, he shouldn’t expect full-time status…maybe 1-2 classes, and no housing.
He’s going to attend UT-Dallas instead. They’ve been GREAT!</p>

<p>this is Bowdoin’s response—</p>
<p>“In response to the destruction and desperation caused by Hurricane Katrina, Bowdoin College will contribute $30,000 to three historically African-American colleges facing substantial recovery and reconstruction costs in Louisiana and Mississippi.” (that’s split three ways, so $10,000 to each college)</p>
