Morton College will offer extended hours during the month of August to accommodate new and current students who are interested in registering for the Fall semester, meeting with an advisor and paying tuition and fees. The fall semester begins on Monday, Aug. 21st. “We have a lot of students who are hard pressed to get here during the week,” said Marisol Velazquez, Director of Student Development. “The extended hours will better serve traditional and nontraditional students who are juggling school and other priorities.” The Morton College departments extending their hours will be Academic Advising, Admissions and Records, Financial Aid, and the Cashier’s Office. The extended hours are: Friday, Aug. 18th: 8a.m., to 7p.m.; Saturday, Aug. 19th: 9a.m., to 3p.m.; and Saturday, Aug. 26th: 9a.m., to 1p.m. For more information contact Academic Advising at 708-656-8000 ext. 2250 or visit Morton.edu.
