ITT Tech Closes

HOUSTON (FOX 26) - Thousands of students at ITT's two Houston campuses are wondering what to do next.   Hundreds of employees are now without a job.

The U.S. Department of Education is sponsoring a series of national webinars  for all ITT students to share information and address students' questions and concerns.

The webinars scheduled for Wednesday, Sept. 7,  10 a.m., 12 noon, and 2 p.m. Eastern time

The U.S. Department of Education is investigating ITT for an irregularity in its recruiting and accounting procedures.  The Department of Education ordered ITT to pay back the government $152 to cover student refunds. ITT says those actions were unwarranted; the company couldn't pay those millions, and would have to shut down. 

Many community colleges, are working with students to make the transfer.
