Pensacola State College summer registration is right around the corner and the Student Services department is here to meet students’ needs – virtually.
Summer registration begins April 15 with fall registration set to start June 1.
Current and potential students can still access the Admissions, Advising, Financial Aid and Records departments – though not face-to-face.
Kathy Dutremble, Dean of Student Affairs, said the College is trying to maintain operations as normal as possible and make it easy for students to register for the upcoming terms.
“I am so proud of the Student Affairs staff! They worked together to get all areas up and operating in a totally virtual environment in only a few days,” Dutremble said.
“In order to actively engage with our various student populations, as well as prospective high school students, we have been working with different virtual platforms for several years, so to go totally virtual was not too big a stretch. We continue to focus on serving our students and community as efficiently and effectively as possible and are encouraged by the positive responses,” she said.
