LABS REOPENING

Since Full Sail’s campus closed in March, we’ve been working on plans for how to reopen in a way that protects our students and educators. That plan has included many changes to our cleaning and sanitation processes, new measures like social distancing, temperature checks, and mask requirements, and changes to lab scheduling to reduce the number of people on campus at a time.

These changes allowed us to safely welcome a limited number of senior students back to campus starting in July. Based on that experience, starting in October, we re-opened the campus further, inviting campus students back for labs and other small on-campus experiences, even as we continue to assess the situation and make any necessary updates or adjustments based on local, state, and federal guidance. And for now, all lectures are planned to remain online.
