Norfolk State University Makes Provisions to Accept Students from the Gulf Coast

Norfolk, Va.— In response to the tragic events occurring in the states of Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi, Norfolk State University will extend registration for students who planned to attend college in those states. The university will make flexible registration and tuition payment arrangements for students through September 6. Impacted students, who will be treated as transfers, will have access to the NSU Counseling Center, academic advising and counseling, tutoring, and other university services. In addition, NSU will work through the School of Social Work to link students with appropriate social service agencies for relief assistance.

Norfolk State University is soliciting contributions from students, faculty, and staff to assist the victims of Hurricane Katrina. Contributions should be made to the Norfolk State University Foundation for the Hurricane Victims Relief Fund. Send contributions to University Advancement, HBW Hall, Suite 410, Norfolk, VA 23504. Participants may also make contributions through the website at http://alumni.nsu.edu/donations/.
