Welcome back, learners! Whether you are attending classes this semester or heading to the Archbold campus for a single training session, we encourage you to review the information below about our latest construction project.

Welcome back! Tomorrow is the first day of classes, and we are excited to have you on campus!

As you arrive, you will notice ongoing work related to our water project. Some sidewalks and entrances may be temporarily blocked. Please be patient, follow all signs and red cones, and use another entrance or walkway if your normal route is closed. Good news: All campus parking lots will be open.

The only parking area that will be closed is the front row of parking near A-20. A majority of entrances and sidewalks are open. The A10 (main entrance), A20, E10, and, E42 entrances are open. The current project is expected to be completed soon.

Conditions may change as work progresses, so please pay attention to signage and barriers when you arrive on campus. For help navigating campus, please refer to our maps here: https://maps.northweststate.edu/
