WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW ABOUT PHASE 2

HOUSING & RESIDENCE LIFE

Return to Campus

Move-in for those approved to live in on-campus housing will take place Sept. 22-26. All students should self-quarantine for two weeks prior to returning to Athens.

ACADEMICS

Course Schedules

Many students in Phase 2 will have some face-to-face experiences, but the majority of courses will continue online. Students will receive direction from their instructors for courses with in-person requirements.

HOUSING OPT-OUT

Remote Alternative

If you are approved for Phase 2 but do not plan to return to live on campus, you need to complete an intent to remain online form by Sept. 10 at 9 a.m. The form can be found through your myhousing portal.

Program Selection

Decisions for return were based on essential in-person educational requirements, and which programs would most benefit from access to labs, studios and specialized equipment.
