COVID-19 Information

For Our Students:

Continuing and Professional Education continues to monitor developments regarding coronavirus.. Mason’s focus continues to be the safety and well-being of our students, faculty, employees, and the communities we serve. To that end, we are currently working with our vendors and instructors to mitigate potential disruptions of course and program delivery. We will continue to update this page with information as needed. Mason strongly recommends that you activate your Patriot Pass, setup your Office 365 and establish access to Mason Alerts. These are the university’s official methods of communication and will contain the most recent updates related to this issue.

For more information on Mason’s COVID-19 resources, please visit the Safe Return to Campus page. Mason requires all students, faculty, and staff to get a COVID-19 vaccine. For more information, read the Operational Risk Management page.

In addition to helping students become aware of disruptions to regularly scheduled courses and programs, we are working to finalize contingency plans in place that are designed to provide continuity in delivery. These include remote delivery capabilities, alternate classroom locations and continuity plans for accessing support.

Please do not hesitate to contact our team if you require assistance or additional information.
