The actions you take over the next few months will determine whether we can be on campus together throughout the fall. Abiding by the practices in the Stay Safe Pledge will be imperative to a successful semester. If you cannot abide by the practices in this pledge, we encourage you to study remotely for the fall semester. For those who return to campus and do not comply with these directives, whether or not you take this pledge, you may face referrals to the University's Office of Student Rights and Responsibilities for violation of the Code of Student Conduct and subsequent sanctions. The safety of our community is a shared responsibility, and our actions can put ourselves and others at risk.

TUITION & FEES

SBA3: What resources are available to assist students with terminating their leases early, given the late release of reconfigured course schedules and the change in the delivery of instruction? Students’ schedules were modified and released after leases were signed, rendering the need for the lease moot. Assistance with lease terminations prevents the unnecessary financial burden on students with the bulk of coursework now online.

Q19: What accommodations will be made for students unable to return to campus in fall 2020 due to health  or other  concerns?

A:  The College is planning for residential instruction this fall,  as outlined in this memo . We also continue to explore how best to deliver online instruction to accommodate students and faculty not able to be on campus—because they are immunocompromised, in self-quarantine, or ill with COVID-19—while including meaningful residential opportunities based upon our programmatic needs, accreditation requirements, and academic standards.

A: A May 12, 2020, Daily Orange article on University tuition (“SU to raise cost of tuition for 2020-21 academic year”) contained a factual error with regard to the College of Law’s Health and Wellness fee. The article falsely reported a 15% increase, whereas the fee increase is in fact $15.00, or 2%, for the year and is on par with other schools and colleges. College of Law program fees—the Law Resource Fee and Law Activity Fee—remain flat with no increase. Tuition and fees are set by the Board of Trustees of Syracuse University. If the tuition or fees are changed, the College of Law will inform students as soon as possible. Please contact the  Office of Financial Aid  with any questions.

UPDATE: On August 1, the College learned that the University plans to waive the health and wellness fee for all students who are fully remote this fall. Review health and wellness services here.

At present, Campus Food Services plans to remove half of the seating in the café, install plexiglass shields where appropriate to safely maximize space, and place social distancing signage reminders as needed. The café will limit “made to order” options, and enhance “grab and go” offerings. More information will be forthcoming. Our  Our plans are subject to change, based on guidelines from the government. Additional food options can be found here.

Q116: The ICE announcement that international student will be removed from the United States if school operates the online-only course in Fall 2020 might seriously damaged international students' rights. Is the College of Law working on a solution for this policy?

A: The College of Law shares the concerns with our international students. We are following the trajectory of this newly announced policy with our colleagues across campus and at the Center for International Services and will do what we can to support our affected students as it relates to our fall plans. We hope that the need to continuously adapt to COVID-19’s threatening conditions does not trigger the policy. We are monitoring these developments, and as we learn more and gain additional guidance, we will be sharing that information with our students.: UPDATE: In late July, ICE new guidance specific to new international students. Please refer to this message from Syracuse University. 

Q116a: What steps are the University taking regarding the ICE rule of international students and remote learning?

...

A: Yes! All College of Law offices are open during normal business hours. Our teams are ready to support you even as they work remotely, like you. Department points of entry can be  found here , and the College's full Directory can be  found here .

Q119: Can I still make an appointment with the Office of Career Services?
