Midway College is offering special resources for any students from Mid-Continent University who want to transfer to Midway. Transferring students will have their application fees waived and the college will work quickly, offering extended admissions hours and online chat sessions as needed to accommodate students' requests.

"We realize that this is a stressful time for all of those in the Mid-Continent community, from the administration, faculty, students and their families," said Dr. John Marsden, President, Midway College. "I have already offered our support to the administration at Mid-Continent, discussed our support with AIKCU and held internal discussions with our staff to reinforce the need to assist with transferring students and any faculty that might be looking at open positions we have."

"We have already received many calls this week and our admissions counselors are working to assure those students that we will work to assist them in getting their official transcripts in order to do transcript evaluations. Our summer and fall registration periods are still open so we can work with them to see when they can get started," said Stephanie Whaley, Dean of Enrollment. "Our financial aid officers have also been briefed on the situation and are ready to answer questions and assist with any transfer requests. Since Mid-Continent serves students from various parts of the state we believe our online programs can be a good resource for those students who can't travel to our Midway or Lexington location. We have several bachelor degree programs that can be completed online - business administration, criminal justice, healthcare administration, psychology and teacher education are a few."

Information for Mid-Continent students and anyone interested in transferring to Midway College can be found at www.midway.edu. Midway's admission office will host two online chat transfer sessions for Mid-Continent and other transfer students Wednesday, April 23 and Wednesday, April 30 from 5:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m.

To register for the online events, students can go to www.midway.edu and information will be on the homepage - look for CollegeWeek Live Transfer Chat Session. Admissions counselors and financial aid representatives will be online during the two hour chat sessions and ready to answer any questions. Students can login at any time during this period to be assisted.
