<p class="MsoNormal"><i><span style="color:#1F497D">This is a follow up message to clarify the previous announcement you received regarding the Spring 2021 mandate. The university is not moving all of the courses to an online format. If you are registered
for a face-to-face and/or blended course, they will remain in that delivery format. Although the mandate for the Fall 2020 semester remains in place, we strongly encourage you to remain in the classes you are registered rather than trying to change to a fully
online schedule. It is perfectly acceptable to be enrolled in a combination of blended, face-to-face, and online courses. Dropping courses in an attempt to change your schedule at this point could result in you not having the schedule you want or worse,
unable to get a full course load, which is required. <o:p></o:p></span></i></p>
