Return to Campus

The University of Oregon plans to return to mostly in-person classes and experiences this fall. Encouraging news about vaccines supply and distributions means we can carefully plan to welcome you safely back for more on-campus instruction and activities.

COVID-19 isn’t going away, so campus life won’t be like it was before the pandemic. We still need to take precautions and take care of each other. We are preparing classrooms, residence halls, libraries, the rec center and more to safely welcome you to the UO this September.

What You Need to Know

There are many things happening across campus to prepare for in-person this fall. Read more about housing, law school semester details, vaccine information or latest news.
