Academic Calendar Schedule Adjustment for Prevention of Novel Coronavirus Infection


We wish all CAU members the best of health. Due to the spread of coronavirus, the number of confirmed infections continues to rise in Korea and there is growing concern over the virus within the local community. In response, the Korean government raised the national disease response level to Orange to Red. In this situation, as we put the safety and health of our members on the top priority, we have delayed the start of the spring semester by two weeks, and canceled or delayed major events such as the entrance ceremony and commencement ceremony. Since coronavirus is still not contained, we have decided to take the following measures for the Spring 2020 semester in response to the current situation.


¡Ü Academic Calendar Schedule Adjustment

The Spring 2020 Semester will be 15 weeks, from March 16 (Mon) to June 27 (Sat). However, in order to cover courses scheduled for 16 weeks in 15 weeks, make-up classes will be provided for the missing week. The adjusted schedule following the delay of the start and end of the semester will be as follows:

¡Ü Graduation Gown Rent and Diploma Distribution

Graduation gowns will not be rented due to the delay of degree ceremonies, which was decided in consideration of high risk of infection in crowded places. Diplomas will be distributed by mail and students unable to visit the campus can receive their graduation albums by courier service.


We kindly ask for your understanding regarding the aforementioned adjustments made to put infection prevention on our top priority considering the worsening coronavirus situation. The University HQ and all faculty members will spare no effort to make sure that students do not have any disadvantages regarding their education due to the virus outbreak. Also, we will closely collaborate with government agencies to take timely measures including disinfection for infection prevention and control. Most of all, the health and safety of CAU members is the most important thing for us. We understand that there could be some inconvenience, but we ask you for cooperation in following the adjusted school schedule and infection prevention guidelines provided by different institutions. Please pay special attention to personal hygiene to wisely cope with the current situation.
