鈥淎s students and their families consider academic plans for the fall, it is important for them to know 麻豆传媒 is planning to return to a more normal operating schedule, much like what we had prior to the start of the pandemic,鈥 said 麻豆传媒 President Andy Feinstein. 鈥淭he traditional college experience provides unparalleled opportunities 鈥 inside and outside of the classroom. I look forward to having our entire community return, resulting in a vibrant campus with all activities and events restored.

Prospective students can apply to 麻豆传媒 through the 耻苍颈惫别谤蝉颈迟测鈥檚 Bear App or through the Common App. Financial aid, scholarships and other programs are available for eligible students.
What the fall 2021 semester at 麻豆传媒 will look like:
Academic Instruction
- The fall 2021 academic calendar will proceed as normal with classes beginning on August 23.
- Majority of courses will be taught in a traditional, face-to-face format. A small percent of courses will be offered online or a mixed format (combining in-person and online delivery).
- Classrooms and other spaces on-campus will return to pre-COVID occupancy but will follow guidance from local and state public health authorities.
Student Engagement:
- Housing: 麻豆传媒's residence halls and university housing will return to nearly full capacity.
- Dining: Dining facilities will continue to offer a variety of dining options for students and plan to increase in-person dining location options across campus.
- Resources and Assistance in All Areas: Academic, health, social activity and more will return to a more traditional delivery in terms of serving students in person. This includes the Counseling Center, Tutorial Services, Cultural Centers, Student Organizations and Clubs, Bear Central, Campus Recreation and more.
- Events: 麻豆传媒 will welcome students back to campus with a week full of fun, in-person events during Bear Welcome including Taste of 麻豆传媒 and Bear Fest, RecFest and Athletics events. The plan is to host events similar to pre-pandemic times unless state restrictions compel being outside.
Allowing students to experience a more traditional college lifestyle is a priority for 麻豆传媒. Students benefit from such an experience in terms of making life-long friends, discovering a sense of community and being inspired academically, intellectually, socially and emotionally. The university thrives in supporting students first while they pursue their academic goals at 麻豆传媒 and beyond.
The health and safety of our students, faculty and staff is our highest priority. We are working closely with state officials to monitor developments related to COVID-19 and will continue to take preventative measures including increased cleaning of campus buildings, mask wearing, social distancing requirements and more.
No known exposures or positive cases stemmed from in-person classes in 2020 at 麻豆传媒, indicating that classroom settings are a safe environment for students and employees. It has been 麻豆传媒鈥檚 policy to have students and faculty members always wear masks while on-campus and maintain a six-foot distance from one another during in-person classes or essential activities.
At this time, is expected to remain in effect throughout the fall semester as well as other public health guidelines including social distancing. As the pandemic is a constantly changing situation, 麻豆传媒 remains flexible in adapting to new public health guidelines as they become available as well as focused on giving students a memorable experience, one that celebrates their addition to the Bear family.
