Former ITT Tech students in North Texas are getting a life line to continue their higher education.
On Wednesday, the University of North Texas’s Frisco campus is hosting an open house for the thousand or so students in the area that were displaced when ITT Tech closed their doors earlier this month.
Representatives from UNT and the North Texas Community College Consortium set up booths at the campus to meet with those students and see what they can do to transfer their credits and other work put in at the now shuttered school.
Leaders with the group said they’ve already had several of the former students take the opportunity and enroll for classes; some even getting in before the semester deadline.
While the deadline for fall has passed, the colleges hope to get those students enrolled as early as next semester to continue toward their majors.
Any former ITT students interested in checking the colleges out are welcome to attend the open house. It continues Wednesday until 7 p.m. at the UNT Frisco campus.
