We have announced that our Fall 2020 semester will be delivered through a blend of in-person and remote instruction. 

This approach allows the university to prioritize the health and safety of our community with the enhanced educational opportunities of in-person engagement. For more information, view the Fall Instruction FAQ.

We are providing updates linked to our return to on-campus operations working teams.

The COVID-19 University Life briefing will take place at 9 a.m. on Wednesday, June 24 via go.illinois.edu/covid-19briefing. Previous COVID-19 briefings are available to watch, including the Budget & Finance, Academics and SHIELD: Target, Test, Tell briefings.

We are working to understand our technology so we can better serve our university community.

We are encouraging all university employees to take advantage of free COVID-19 testing.

Free testing is available to everyone in our community.
