ALBANY, NY – The Albany College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences (ACPHS) has decided to provide students a prorated refund for on-campus room and board, parking and student activity fees. The College made this decision shortly after deciding to extend remote instruction through the end of the spring semester to help stop the spread of the coronavirus pandemic. ACPHS is committed to its mission to educate the next generation of leaders to improve the health of our society, especially under these extraordinary circumstances. “Our mission is more critical than ever as communities around the world are relying on their healthcare professionals. But we must also be committed to the financial health of our students. We are a close-knit community at ACPHS. We owe it to our students and their families to help them during this difficult time,” said ACPHS President Greg Dewey. These refunds will be issued by the end of this semester.
