Moving to Online Courses

What is the status for current online courses?

Beginning Monday, March 23, the university will deliver all course content online or via other remote methods for the remainder of the Spring 2020 semester. For additional questions about specific course assignments, please reach out to your professors.

Will the university be having Summer Sessions?

SUMMER 2020

All Summer terms – including May, First Summer, Second Summer, Full Summer and August – will be delivered remotely through online or alternative methods. Courses available during registration for those terms will be limited to courses that are amenable to online or alternative delivery methods. This change will take effect at the Oxford and all regional campuses.

FALL 2020

Registration options for the Fall 2020 semester have not changed at this time. Any future changes to that plan will depend on how the public health emergency unfolds over the coming months. If we are forced to shift to remote course delivery, some courses could be affected. University leadership will notify you if any change is required for Fall 2020.
