Franklin College Offers Free Admission to Students Displaced by Hurricane Katrina

Released/Updated: 9/1/05

FRANKLIN, Ind. Franklin College is extending a helping hand to college students who have been shut out of Gulf Coast universities and colleges by Hurricane Katrina.

President James G. Moseley announced that students enrolled in Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and Louisiana schools shut down by storm damage can enroll for available spaces in fall semester classes at Franklin College without an application fee and without charge for tuition.

The college will make every effort to ensure that classes are transferable and similar to classes in which students had already enrolled at their Gulf Coast area colleges or universities.

We want to do whatever we can to assist students whose lives have been disrupted by this disaster, said President Moseley.

Our classes began this week, so we hope that such students who are interested in attending Franklin College will be in touch quickly. Our faculty members will help to ensure that their transition is as smooth as possible.

Interested students should call Vice President of Enrollment and Marketing Alan Hill at (317) 738-8062 no later than Friday, Sept. 9.

Extending an invitation to the students whose college plans have been disrupted is one way that Franklin College can make a positive impact during these trying times, said Hill.

We're eager to help students keep their plans on track and realize their dreams for an education. Founded in 1834, Franklin College is a four-year undergraduate liberal arts institution 20 minutes from downtown Indianapolis.

The college offers more than 40 programs of study including biology, business, education and journalism. The college, which was the first institution of higher education in Indiana to admit women, has an enrollment of approximately 1,000 students and maintains a voluntary association with the American Baptist Churches USA.

You forgot to mention that Franklin's regionally accredited, without which its offer wouldn't mean very much.
