Current COVID-19 Information

ACU senior leadership is continually monitoring the rapidly changing global threat posed by the Coronavirus (COVID-19). At ACU, our top priority has been – and will always be – the health, safety and well-being of our students, faculty and staff.

  • Through Sept. 24, all instructors and students – regardless of vaccination status – are required to wear face coverings in classrooms, labs, studios and other instructional spaces, and indoor Chapel gatherings. After Sept. 24, ACU encourages all members our community to wear face masks in indoor spaces on campus and strongly recommends they be worn by all unvaccinated persons.
  • Our Fall 2021 plan reflects a continued commitment to preserve the health and well-being of our campus community and fulfill our mission of providing a transformative residential experience for our students. ACU will remain flexible as new information continues to emerge in the coming weeks and months.
