Dear Resident Student:
The University has decided to suspend in-person classes and has instructed students to leave the campus March 23 through April 5, 2020. However, we realize that there are various reasons why some students are unable to leave their on-campus housing.
If you are unable to leave campus housing
you must submit a request to stay on campus.
Requests must be submitted by Monday, March 16, 2020 at noon.
To submit a request, log into your
MyHousing
account and submit the
March 23 – April 5 Housing Request Form
and indicate the reason for residing on campus. Requests will be reviewed by a team of individuals from the university and students then will be told whether or not their requests have been approved.
Students who are approved to stay will remain in an on-campus housing assignment and have limited services available to them. Students may also be required to move temporarily to a different housing assignment. While on campus, students will not be allowed to have guests visiting them in their residential space as a precaution related to reducing the spread of the COVID-19 virus. The practice of social distancing, by not allowing guests to visit the halls, helps with this.
Emergency response and limited other services will be available to students who remain on-campus. Specific instructions about how to access these services will be shared with the students who have been approved to stay. Please understand that students who do not submit a request to remain on campus, and/or are not approved to remain, will not have access to the residential areas.
