FALL 2020 EDUCATIONAL PLAN
We are excited to welcome our students back onto campus this fall, and are committed to keeping our entire community safe
while continuing our delivery of high-quality education.
To allow students the flexibility and safety they need during this time, the majority of courses will be held remotely, either
synchronously (at set times) or asynchronously (on their own schedules).
Most lecture-based classes will be held remotely, with a few hybrid or on-campus options available in some programs. As allowed
by local health authorities, the majority of the lab sections will be held on campus, with proper physical distancing and cleaning
protocols. Clinicals and practicums in healthcare will be offered at the clinical sites, and will follow each site’s protocols. Student
support services are available fall term and will be provided remotely.
