Courses for the Fall 2021 semester will be offered mostly in a traditional, residential way, back on campus. Courses that will be offered remotely will have an assigned course attribute which indicates how content will be delivered, synchronously or asynchronously. The attributes assigned serve as a general basis for delivery modes, but do not include specific information for individual courses. Students will need to contact the department of instruction on specific course delivery as the Registrar’s Office is not equipped with that information.

As part of the fall plan, each remote course and section will be designated as synchronous or asynchronous. Most courses will be back on campus with regular, scheduled in-person attendance.

You may review live, up-to-date delivery mode information for Fall 2021 courses directly in OSCAR when the Schedule of Classes goes live on Wednesday, March 17, 2021. Delivery mode may be subject to change at any time.
