As of March 2, 2022 students will be allowed to remove their masks indoors and outdoors sparring certain situations outlined in their most recent COVID-19 information.

Masks will still be required if a faculty member requires masks for their classes, during any COVID-19 testing at the MyHealth@School Center, the Counseling Center, or on the Yorktown Shuttle.

Students are still encouraged to wear masks if they prefer to do so as well as a strong recommendation that any visitors should continue to wear masks indoors.

The mandate was put in effect for the Fall 2020 semester for all students regardless of vaccination status to wear masks in doors.

COVID-19 testing will still be conducted as the university will be watching closely for any spikes in COVID-19 cases throughout the campus community.
