Vatterott students came on campus to find a sign on the door stating that the North Park campus is closed, according to CBS-affiliate KMOV4.

The college also sent a letter to staff that said the school is working to find other colleges and universities that could take current Vatterott students as transfers.

Senator Dick Durbin D-IL confirmed the campus shut down in a statement, adding that the 2,300 students around the country “are left high and dry.”
