OVERLAND PARK, Kansas, April 15, 2016 – Mission Group Kansas, Inc. (doing business as Wright Career College) today announced that the Company had filed a Voluntary Petition for Chapter 7 Bankruptcy in the District of Kansas. Wright Career College has ceased substantially all operations and discontinued instruction at its 5 campuses. The Company had been in negotiations with several parties to arrange for teach-out partners to allow its students to continue their education, however these efforts were unsuccessful. Additionally, the Company has been advised by a number of schools that they will accept transfer credits from Wright Career College students.
Wright Career College is a Not for Profit College that has operated in the Kansas City Metropolitan area since its founding as Dickinson Business School in 1921.
Information about the closure is posted on the following two websites:
