It is particularly applicable to those adults whose job or personal responsibilities preclude attending classes in the traditional manner. The program is designed to serve students in close proximity to Kansas City. Portfolio applicants submit official college transcripts, a detailed resume, and documentation of any military training. Evaluation takes place and credit may be awarded for experiential learning as well as for the transcripted prior college work. Students work with a faculty advisor to determine their educational goals.
Coursework is completed by individual study tutorials and by formal classroom work.
Students wishing to enter the program will begin during the first week of the month that follows their acceptance into the program. If during the period covered by enrollment, the student finds it necessary to withdraw from the program, the refund policy will be the same as stated elsewhere in the catalog for a 9-week term. The effective date of withdrawal will be the date on which the student met with the instructor. The withdrawal form can be from the Portfolio Administrative Office at 934 Wyandotte, Kansas City, MO 64105.
