Students Stay Connected to Bastyr with New iPhone App

The University recently released a custom app for the iPhone, iPod touch and iPad that gives students and the public on-the-go access to important news, events and student information.

Bastyr University students can now find their school in the Apple App Store.

Designed primarily for students, the app allows easy access to class information, class schedules, billing updates and grades. Before, students could only access this information through the MyBU portal. 

For the public, the app includes current news and events, the cafeteria menu, directions, social media connections and contact information for University employees. 

The free app can be found in the Apple App Store (search for "Bastyr University"). 

If you're not using an Apple mobile device, you can still access a mobile-optimized version of the Bastyr University website at m.bastyr.edu.
