Even if you are not able to travel to join us on Campus for the start of your course, you can still benefit from a transformational Essex education and we will work with you to support you, whatever your circumstances.
We are currently only providing Face-to-face teaching for the following courses:
- Nursing
- Allied health professions (excluding SRES)
- Oral health
- Social work
- Physiotherapy
For all students who are not studying on the courses included above, the UK Government has said that you should stay where you are if possible and study online until at least mid-February. Please check your department page for more details.
We recommend that you consider your circumstances at home in your decision making process. You should think about your study space at home, access to things like good WiFi and whether time differences will make it difficult or not for you to interact with live sessions.
We appreciate that our students are living through changed circumstances, and we are absolutely committed to doing all we can to help you to continue learning through this period.
We will keep you updated as we receive further guidance and continue to review our plans in light of the changing context of the pandemic.
If you are going to travel to campus and have been issued with a CAS, you must contact visaquery@essex.ac.uk if you will are unable to travel by the Latest Accept Date (LAD) stated in your CAS. For most applicants this date will be 6 April 2021, which is also the deadline by which students must arrive if they wish to benefit from the new Graduate Immigration Scheme.
