Coronavirus (COVID-19) Outbreak

Update Tuesday 24 March 2020

The University of York continues to actively monitor the COVID-19 outbreak. 

Following the announcement of stay-at-home measures by the Prime Minister on Monday 23 March, the majority of university buildings will be closed by 5pm on Wednesday 25 March. 

All teaching will have moved to online delivery from the start of summer term, Tuesday 14 April. With the exception of all first year examinations, which have been cancelled, all examinations and assessments for the remainder of this academic year will move online. At present, it is intended that exam results will be returned as quickly as possible.

The University is providing up-to-date information and advice for students, staff and all other stakeholders at https://www.york.ac.uk/coronavirus/
