THE GRADUATE SCHOOL

Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, most graduate students were expected to be on campus in laboratories, offices, and classrooms in order to advance their scholarship and make progress toward degree completion. In accordance with University planning for the Summer 2021 and Fall 2021 Quarters, The Graduate School expects graduate students to follow their program’s guidelines, their research requirements, teaching assignments, and expectations of relevant funding agencies with respect to in-person residency. Beginning Tuesday, July 6, 2021, graduate students are expected to be present on campus when their research and teaching assignments require it. In the rare case where a graduate student is unable to return to campus when their scholarship requires an in-person presence, The Graduate School will work with the program to help find solutions.
