Recent history
From July through September 2007, Neumont briefly expanded to Virginia, leasing a suite in the Dulles Town Center mall. The expansion was cancelled after one academic quarter.
Graham Doxey stepped down as Neumont's president in 2007, replaced by Edward H. Levine.
In August 2012, Neumont University announced plans to relocate its academic facilities and student housing to 143 South Main Street, Salt Lake City, an 11-story art deco building which formerly housed The Salt Lake Tribune. The school officially relocated to its downtown Salt Lake City location in June 2013, with the first new cohort of students beginning classes in October.
On July 1st, 2015, president Edward H. Levine stepped down and was replaced by Shaun McAlmont. McAlmont came to Neumont after working as CEO of Lincoln Educational Services, a New Jersey-based chain of for-profit colleges.
