Returning to Campus 

Back to School

Colleges and Universities were hit hard by COVID-19, and we're proud of how our students and education leaders have responded. As we bounce back – Connecticut is leading the country. We’re counting on young people to keep it that way.

Connecticut has some of the best schools in the country – and we're doing our best to make sure that each and every student has a full semester ahead of them. That means we need to follow some vital public health guidelines. 

Always remember: 

  • When in doubt – wear a mask.  
  • Stay 6 feet away – especially inside.  
  • Wash your hands.  
  • And if you feel sick – stay home.  

Each campus has worked hard on a reopening plan so that students can safely concentrate on their education. Check out the list below to see your school's reopening information. 

While each campus may look a little different, you’ll be asked to get tested before returning to campus, and to quarantine upon arrival if you’re traveling from a state affected by Connecticut’s travel advisory.  

Keep in mind, each school may have variations in their plan. However, some things will remain constant across the State: you’ll be asked to get tested before returning to campus. And if you’re traveling from a state affected by Connecticut’s travel advisory, you’ll need to quarantine upon arrival. 

Please, don’t hesitate to contact your campus with any questions, even if your school isn't listed below.
