While we can’t realistically expect complete campus normalcy this fall, we will make every effort to ensure our students have the best possible experiences on campus under the difficult circumstances.”Each ASU System institution has a Covid-19 website page with information regarding campus updates on various topics, summer classes, commencement and other issues.
