Ateneo indefinitely postpones on-campus classes, work due to COVID-19 surge

Ateneo de Manila University has indefinitely postponed the resumption of its on-campus classes and work due to a surge in COVID-19 cases.

The decision was made to prioritize the safety of the university community amid the rise of infections, especially in the National Capital Region.

This postponement affects the planned limited in-person classes for the Loyola Schools and Professional Schools, as well as the return to on-site work.

However, limited face-to-face classes at the School of Medicine and Public Health and the administration of the 2020 & 2021 Bar Examinations at the Ateneo Law School Rockwell Campus will proceed under strict health protocols.

The university will continue its preparations for the eventual return to campus to ensure readiness of protocols and facilities.

University president Fr. Roberto Yap urged the public to adhere to health protocols and get vaccinated.
