Fall Quarter Planning 

  • We look forward to welcoming everyone back to campus in the fall and offering students a robust on-campus experience.  
  • The fall class schedule has been constructed to offer a minimum of 60% of classes with an in-person component to students. 
  • Veteran student requirements are reverting back this summer to the pre-pandemic standard per the US Department of Veteran’s Affairs: students must take at least one class with an in-person component in order to be eligible for a full housing benefit.  
  • International student requirements may revert back to the pre-pandemic standard, per the federal government, in which students can take just one online class per a 12 credit full load.  
  • Beginning Tuesday, September 6th, campus operating hours will be Monday-Thursdays 8 am-5 pm, Fridays 8am-4:30 pm. All services will be available in person, as well as online during campus hours of operation.     
  • Full-time on-campus staffing is being coordinated for all classified, administrative exempt, and non-instructional faculty positions.  
  • Parking permits will be required beginning September 2022 forward for those parking on campus. If you do not yet have a parking permit, please visit the Safety & Security Office during regular business hours to request one.
