UNT has about 4,000 students impacted by Hurricane Harvey and is encouraging faculty and staff to be especially compassionate and flexible with them as they transition into the fall semester. UNT also is working with students to provide them with an educational home if they were displaced by the storm. We are waiving application fees and giving them immediate admittance so they can start the fall semester as soon as possible.

"As we watch the news about Hurricane Harvey's impact on Texas' Gulf Coast, our thoughts are with the people affected," President Neal Smatresk said. "Our university is a community of great compassion, and I know that we will support the impacted individuals in every way we can."

Students, call 940-565-2681 or email undergrad@unt.edu to find more information.
