Frequently Asked Questions:

-Do you provide housing?
No, but you can set up housing with our university housing department (http://www.suu.edu/ss/housing).

-How do I apply for financial aid?
(http://suu.edu/ed/graduate/financial-assistance.html)

-What if I want to seek a Masters of Education at SUU, can I use these courses?
Yes, you can use 12 hours of these courses for your master degree elective requirements, but you must meet requirements beyond the non-degree seeking requirements to get into the full Master of Education program (Contact Sandy Ward if you want to apply to graduate school at 435-865-8577 or by e-mail at ward_s@suu.edu.)

-What if I was previously in the SEAL or GELP programs for Special Edcuation?
You may continue on the schedule (which was sent to you several mnonths ago) established earlier for the last group of those students, you may take courses with students in the new SEHLP group, or a combination of both. Please note that the schedule for completion for the previous students is Fall 2012. Failure to complete by then, will put you in a position where you must work around the schedule of the new SHELP.

Please Help Us: We are exploring the possibility of a year round option to offer in addition to our summer series. We would offer courses in the fall and spring and require face-to-face weekend classes at various times. Let us know what you think. Contact Nichole Wangsgard at wangsgard@suu.edu.
