Casa Loma Campus is reopening! 💙
Power has been restored and Casa Loma Campus will resume normal operations on Tuesday, September 8. Classes, student services and campus activities will proceed as scheduled.

⚠️ Dear George Brown Community,
George Brown teams continue to work closely with electrical contractors to restore power at Casa Loma Campus following the damage caused by yesterday’s extreme weather conditions.
At this time, restoration work remains ongoing and Casa Loma Campus ONLY will remain closed until further notice.
We understand this situation has disrupted plans for students and employees, particularly those who were scheduled to attend Orientation activities. Our teams will continue recovery efforts throughout the coming days, and we will share further updates over the weekend.
Thank you for your patience and understanding as this work continues. The safety of our students, employees and visitors remains our top priority.
Please continue to monitor your George Brown email and georgebrown.ca/about/news-ev… for updates.
