Our Response

Emerson College is working closely with our technology partner to ensure our program is operating during this time. Here are some of the ways we are responding to the COVID-19 pandemic:

Online Programs: Our online program is positioned to support student learning from virtually anywhere. Our program remains open with weekly live classes held in Zoom classrooms. Students are able to meet with one another and professors online at any time, and faculty in this program are trained to teach in the online environment.

Digital Campus: The digital campus for our online program is designed to support connection and collaboration between people living all over the world. There are no barriers to discussion, and our online students remain active in their coursework.

Online Experience: We are always monitoring our online curricula and technology to ensure the most rigorous and engaging experience for students. Our technology partner remains diligent and will continue to assess this experience.

Ongoing Support Services: At this time, our admissions and student support teams remain active and available. We encourage you to reach out at any time to speak with a counselor on either of these teams.

In-Person Experiences: We are working to facilitate in-person experiences which maintain the health and safety of the Emerson community. Communications regarding procedures and requirements will be shared with students as they prepare for these experiences.
