ANDREWS UNIVERSITY REOPENING PLAN
At Andrews, we face challenges head-on with determination, kindness and faith. Safety, Community and Inclusivity will be the three guiding principles of Andrews University's philosophy and approach this fall.
How We are Starting Again
Some colleges have opened and then closed a few days later. We want to make sure Andrews is open for the long haul. So, we have created a framework for life at Andrews that will keep us safe while learning together.
To read the whole policy, go to our COVID-19 Reopening Plan page.
Residence Life
As residence life affects many of our students, we want you to know we are committed to your continued safety throughout your experience here.
To return to in-person instruction this fall, Andrews University has developed a COVID-19 mitigation plan.
Navigating the Plan
As you can imagine, there are a lot of details to cover to make sure we stay safe and to prevent problems that might shut us down. We compiled our detailed plans in our COVID-19 Reopening Plan document. You can scan the whole policy on the plan page. But, we wanted to make it easy for you to access based on what you want to know.
