Webster Named Designated "Teach-Out" Program |
|
|
| Webster has been named a “teach-out institution” for Fontbonne University students to consider as they navigate the many uncertainties they face with the imminent closure of their college.
As a “teach-out institution,” Fontbonne students will be able to transfer all their completed course credits to Webster and pay similar or lower out-of-pocket costs while they complete their degrees on time.
|
“Teach-out” partnerships offer students more protection and a more seamless transition process than if a student followed a traditional path of transferring between institutions.Â
|
|
|
| Summer camp at Webster University expands well beyond the traditional camp experience.
Our camps showcase a wide variety of programs that we offer academically, providing a taste of what students experience when studying at Webster. With a passion for the arts and value for STEM, commitment to innovation and creativity, character- and skill-building, Webster camps promote individual excellence, connection and friendship.
|
With nearly 30 offerings that range from infant through teens, there is something for every age and interest: dance, music, art, media arts, science, nursing, chess, volleyball, basketball and MORE!
Spending summer on the beautiful campus of Webster University. Your child will build character, learn new skills, develop lasting friendships, and most importantly, have FUN!
|
|
|
Supporters like you ensure Webster University thrives as an institution that meets students’ needs and furthers their dreams by providing an amazing academic home as they prepare to serve and lead in their communities and the world.
A recurring gift would enhance student experiences and opportunities and allow them to continue to get better and stronger. Recurring gifts help Webster University meet unmet needs. They strengthen our community by preparing the next generation of global leaders today.
