<p>i am not an HP major, but i know a bit about it, so hopefully all of the following is accurate but i can’t completely guarentee:</p>

<p>-the classes are on the main campus, not the health sciences campus
-housing is normal
-it is not one of the impacted majors</p>

<p>is preventative health the same as the health promotion disease prevention major? Because if it is I know that classes are offered at the main campus (although some of the profs research is at the health science campus)</p>
