In-person classes will start on Monday after being entirely online since Nov. 30, but many classes will remain virtual.

Students returning to campus after Sunday will receive mandatory COVID-19 testing at Memorial Stadium and quarantine at Ashton until they receive their test results. The tests results will take between 24 and 48 hours.

Students have to schedule their test before arrival. Sign-up will open Friday.

Students returning to campus between Jan. 30 and Feb. 7 must take a COVID-19 test at the Garrett Fieldhouse. These students also have to schedule their appointments before arriving and can sign up now.

The university switched to online classes to avoid flu season coinciding with COVID-19, according to News at IU. Students will have in-person classes starting next week through the end of the semester May 9.

During the fall 2020 semester, the amount of in-person classes decreased by 60-70%, IU spokesperson Chuck Carney said, and many classes will remain online for the spring semester.
