A Message from AICUNJ

SUMMIT, N.J., Sept. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- A Message from AICUNJ President, John B. Wilson to New Jersey students attending all colleges/universities that are closed as a result of Hurricane Katrina -- Tulane University, University of New Orleans, Loyola University and any other Louisiana, Alabama or Mississippi college/university.

The Association of Independent Colleges and Universities of New Jersey (AICUNJ) is saddened and concerned about the destruction and resulting hardship caused by Hurricane Katrina in Louisiana, Alabama and Mississippi. We recognize the importance and timeliness of getting students back on track and enrolled for the fall semester.

Our member institutions -- if they have appropriate space -- have agreed to admit students as "visiting students" for the fall semester, with the expectation that they will return to their university/college in the spring semester with transferable credits. We will make every attempt to fit these students into classes related to their major/program.

These institutions are:
- Bloomfield College
- Caldwell College
- Centenary College
- College of St. Elizabeth
- Fairleigh Dickinson University
- Felician College
- Georgian Court University
- Monmouth University
- Princeton University
- Rider University
- Saint Peter's College
- Seton Hall University
- Stevens Institute of Technology

Although we know that this does not take away the pain, we hope this can add some relief in this time of distress.
