Hurricane Katrina: Greenville College Response |
|
|
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 9/5/05
Greenville College President James Mannoia has announced that Greenville College will offer tuition assistance to those students enrolled at colleges and universities in the Gulf Coast flood areas. Greenville College understands the impact that Hurricane Katrina has had on so many and that college students need a place to continue their education until their institution can re-open. The College will offer free tuition for the Fall 2005 semester to these visiting students who meet the college's admissions standards. The College especially wants to provide assistance to students attending colleges that are members of the CCCU and to Free Methodist students in the flood areas.
The College welcomes students who have been impacted by this tragedy and will make every effort to assist those who may apply. Because space is limited, applicants must contact the Greenville College Admissions Office by September 13, 2005. For more information or to apply, call 800-345-4440 or email admissions .
The college is planning on sending a team to the affected areas later this year to make a difference for Christ. The team's goal will be to assist in the relief and the restoration process. If you are interested in helping support this ministry opportunity please contact John Heater by calling 618-664-6694 or by email john.heater.
