ECPI University Offers Trial Period to Former ITT Students

Students Meeting Admissions and Assessment Requirements May Attend Classes for Ten weeks with No Obligation

Virginia Beach, VAECPI University has announced it will offer a “Trial Period” for eligible students displaced by ITT Technical Institute’s recent decision to close. Students meeting admissions and assessment requirements will be given the opportunity to take classes at ECPI University for two 5-week terms (10 weeks) before being considered for acceptance.  “At ECPI University, we put students’ interests first,” says ECPI University President Mark Dreyfus. 

“ITT Tech students have been put in a serious predicament. The U.S. Department of Education has advised former ITT students to not rush into a decision and review all options before continuing their education. ECPI University’s trial period allows them to do just that.”
