Beginning the Academic Year

Ithaca College will begin the academic year on Tuesday, September 8, with remote, hybrid, and in-person instruction, with the in-person portion phased in over a period of several weeks. This means that the move-in process for students will also be phased in, both prior to and during the first several weeks of the academic year.

Adhering to State Guidelines

Our Return to Campus plans have been — and will continue to be — in strict accord with guidance provided by New York Governor Andrew Cuomo and his New York Forward plan. Governor Cuomo has provided extraordinary leadership in helping ensure that the reopening of the state takes place in a data-driven, well-thought out and coordinated way.

The college will incorporate the guidelines for higher education into our plans and abide by them for the health and safety of our students, faculty, and staff as well as the greater good of the community.
