| Schools Worldwide Offer Assistance to Students Affected By Hurricane Katrina There has been an outpouring of support from educators in 33 countries for students and staff displaced by the hurricane and its aftermaths. Offers include partial tuition grants, expedited processing, waived application fees, extending deadlines, and adding spaces beyond normal enrollment limits. Classes in many countries begin in October or November - giving students and faculty additional options to continue their studies, achieve CEU requirements, improve foreign language skills, or complete internships abroad. Transfer credit and Consortium Agreements between US and foreign academic institutions enable many to apply credit earned abroad toward degree requirements at home.
