For international students, answers to questions about the vaccine requirement can also be found in the International Students section below.
How will the Drew community be notified about positive cases on campus?
The COVID-19 Dashboard will be updated regularly to reflect the number of positive cases on campus, as well as other information.
I’m a residential student and I tested positive for COVID-19. What happens now?
You will need to isolate for a designated period, which at this time is a minimum of 10 days (10 days have passed since the onset of symptoms or positive test; you have had no fever for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medications; and your symptoms are mostly resolved). You will be moved to an isolation space on campus. All students in isolation will receive instructions and support such as meal delivery and health check-ins.
I’m a residential student and I had a COVID-19 test off campus, and it came back positive. What should I do?
Notify the Health Service right away, so the contact tracing process can begin and you can be moved to an isolation space on campus. If it is after hours and the Health Service is closed, notify the RA on duty and they will assist with moving you to an isolation space. All students in isolation will receive instructions and support such as meal delivery and health check-ins.
I’m a commuter student and I tested positive for COVID-19. What should I do?
Notify the Health Service as soon as possible. You should not come to campus until you have been cleared from isolation. Follow the instructions from your healthcare provider, the Health Service, and/or public health officials as to when you can discontinue isolation and return to campus.
I’m an employee and I tested positive for COVID-19. What should I do?
Notify your direct supervisor and Human Resources (HR). If you have been on campus, HR will ask you questions to determine if you came into contact with anyone on campus during the period you could have been contagious. They will also review sick time and return to work policies.
What should I do if I was exposed to someone with COVID-19?
You will need to quarantine. When someone tests positive for COVID-19, close contacts of that individual will be notified that they were possibly exposed and should quarantine. The name of the ill individual will not be disclosed for privacy reasons. If you were identified as a close contact, you may be contacted by the Health Service and/or by public health officials from the Health Department. It is important to respond to any calls from the Health Department or the Health Service so we can provide instructions and guidance about how to keep you healthy. Quarantine housing will be available on campus for residential students, in addition to other services and support.
If I’m a close contact of someone with COVID-19, how long do I have to stay in quarantine?
The CDC and New Jersey Department of Health (NJDOH) continue to recommend the 14-day quarantine as best practice to reduce the risk of spreading COVID-19. Given the current rate of community spread in the area and the congregate nature of a college campus, the Madison Health Department will require Drew community members to follow the 14-day quarantine at this time.
I heard someone in my department tested positive for COVID-19. Do I need to quarantine and get tested?
If you were identified as a close contact of an infected individual as the result of contact tracing, you will be notified directly and will be given instructions as to what you should do. Note that details and any identifying information about the infected individual will not be disclosed. If you have not been contacted directly, you do not need to take any special action. Remember to continue to follow all of the required health and safety precautions.
I live in a dorm on campus. My roommate was exposed to someone who has COVID-19, and now they have to be moved to a quarantine room. My roommate feels fine and doesn’t have any symptoms. Does this mean I have to quarantine, too?
No, not necessarily. In this instance, you would be considered a “contact of a contact” and would not have to quarantine. You should continue to wear your face covering, practice physical distancing, wash your hands frequently, and complete your daily health screening on the LiveSafe app as usual.
What is the difference between isolation and quarantine?
Both isolation and quarantine are public health measures that involve separating people from one another in order to prevent the spread of illness. Isolation is separating those who are sick (they either have symptoms or have tested positive for COVID-19) from others who are not sick, to prevent it from spreading. Quarantine separates and restricts movement of those who were exposed to someone with COVID-19, to see if they become sick.
What does it mean to be a close contact?
According to the CDC, the following counts as close contact:
- You were within 6 feet of someone who has COVID-19 for a total of 15 minutes or more
- You provided care at home to someone who is sick with COVID-19
- You had direct physical contact with the person (hugged or kissed them)
- You shared eating or drinking utensils
- They sneezed, coughed, or somehow got respiratory droplets on you
I’m a student living on campus. What should I do if I feel sick?
First, you should isolate yourself from others as much as possible. Do not go to in-person class, the Commons, the gym, or other public places where you could expose others to illness. Next, contact the Health Service to discuss your symptoms with a provider. You might be scheduled for a telehealth visit or an in-person visit. Depending on your symptoms, a COVID-19 test or other testing may be recommended.
Where can I get a COVID-19 test?
COVID-19 testing is available at the Health Service for students on campus who have symptoms suggestive of COVID-19. Call the Health Service to schedule an appointment. You can also visit the NJ Department of Health website for other locations. If you are a student and get tested outside of Drew and the result is positive, notify the Health Service. If you are an employee and get tested outside of Drew and the result is positive, notify your supervisor and HR.
What if I’m sick, but it’s not COVID-19?
As with any illness, you should follow standard precautions to prevent spreading infection to others. This includes staying out of class and in-person activities until you are fever-free for at least 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medications and washing your hands frequently. Always follow the advice of a healthcare professional if you consulted with one.
Do visitors to campus have to wear masks or be vaccinated?
Visitors to campus must comply with campus guidelines regarding masks. The current policy is for all individuals, vaccinated or unvaccinated, to wear masks when in indoor spaces. Visitors will not be required to provide proof of vaccination unless they are overnight guests in a residence hall.
General FAQs
What is the status of the fall 2021 semester?
The University plans to have a fully in-person fall 2021 semester. Although the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic are still with us and will linger into the future, Drew is hopeful and actively planning for a return this fall to a more traditional on-campus experience, complete with robust, in-person academic, research, living, and learning opportunities.
In April 2021, the University announced a policy requiring all students planning to be on campus for the 2021-22 academic year to be vaccinated for COVID-19. This includes undergraduate and graduate students; students participating in our joint and collaborative programs with other institutions; and visiting, exchange, non-matriculated, and special-program students. Read more about the policy, including answers to frequently asked questions here. On August 25, the University announced a policy requiring all employees to be vaccinated as well. Read the announcement here.
Following updated CDC COVID-19 guidance in July 2021 in response to the spread of the Delta variant, Drew has confirmed health and safety policies in effect on campus through at least September 30, 2021. The updated policies and protocols, including those on vaccine requirements, masks, testing, and more, can be found here.
If classes are moved to remote learning, will they feature the robust experience for which Drew is known?
Absolutely! Dedicated and engaged faculty members worked diligently to prepare for virtual learning and mentoring activities for remote and in-person instruction. This included professional development activities associated with online teaching and investment in technology and software that will enhance our ability to continue to offer the rigorous, personalized academic experience you expect from a Drew education. Faculty members will continue to offer engaging virtual experiences in the spring and are excited to include in-person courses and opportunities where possible. We will continue to take full advantage of remote learning through expanded opportunities available to students to make connections with professionals and other mentors and experts who wouldn’t otherwise be able to visit campus to connect with Drew students. Faculty will continue to be available to students through virtual office hours and, in some cases, in-person meetings. Departmentally-sponsored speakers and events, academic support services, library materials and support will all continue to be accessible virtually and, where possible, in person.
What changes would cause Drew to decide to change plans and pivot to a virtual fall 2021?
It is possible that there could be a point where we have to transition entirely to virtual instruction for a period of time during the fall semester should there be a mandate by state and local government, or the New Jersey Office of the Secretary of Higher Education (OSHE); or a significant rises in new COVID-19 cases, hospitalizations, positivity rates, and transmission rates not just on campus, but also in our region. Please be prepared for decisions that could affect both instruction and on-campus living.
What will testing look like during the fall 2021 semester?
All exempt, unvaccinated students will be tested weekly during the semester. Fully vaccinated students will not have to enter surveillance testing protocols. For more on surveillance and symptomatic testing, click here.
Do I have to wear a mask on campus?
As we’ve learned more about the Delta variant, we feel it prudent to expand our mask requirements. The following will be in effect through at least September 30, 2021:
- All individuals are required to wear a face covering when in an indoor public location on campus regardless of vaccination status, except when actively eating or drinking.
- Fully vaccinated students may remove their face coverings in residence halls. Students who received a medical or religious exemption may only remove face coverings in their own residence hall room.
- Individuals alone in an office may remove their face covering, but should wear face coverings when others are present.
- Masks are required in all classrooms and in all off-campus class meeting locations, such as those that are a part of nycTRECs or field trips.
We recognize and support those who are fully vaccinated and choose to wear a mask in any location.
Will academic services and other supports be offered online or in person?
All academic support services offered through the Center for Academic Excellence (subject tutoring, writing support, academic coaching) will be available both online and on campus. Details and instructions for making appointments can be found at drew.mywconline.com. Please direct any questions to cae@drew.edu.
All services offered through the Center for Internships & Professional Development (individual career advisement, internship application and course programming for INTC 200 & 201, employment search and support, employer and professional development) will be available both online and face-to-face. Details and instructions for making appointments can be found at https://launch.drew.edu/channels/professional-development. Please direct any question of services to career@drew.edu or to the Director, Christopher Carbone, at ccarbone3@drew.edu.
Tutoring for Theological School and Caspersen School ESOL students will be available both online and face-to-face. Please direct questions to Prof. Katherine Brown, kgbrown@drew.edu.
Students who are registered with the Office of Accessibility Resources will have access to approved accommodations. Testing accommodations will be offered on campus for in-person classes. Please direct any questions to the Director, Dana Giroux, dgiroux@drew.edu.
Where can students find support for time management, mental well-being, and academic success in a remote learning environment?
Will the University be posting signs regarding face coverings, physical distancing, etc.?
Behavioral signage is posted around campus with guidelines on the use of face-coverings, physical distancing, and other safety protocols. Please visit the Communications Toolkit for the full list of signs. If you need additional signage in your area, a blank template and digital versions of each sign are available for your custom signage needs.
If I have been approved to bring a car on campus, do I need a parking permit?
Commuter students, CLA seniors and juniors and Graduate and Theological residential students are allowed to bring a car to campus. As is policy, you will need to apply for a parking permit.
At this time, we have not changed the parking pass policy to include sophomores and first-year students.
Where do I go for technology support?
You can email helpdesk@drew.edu; call 973-408-3971; visit uknow.drew.edu/techdocs; or look at the resources available at this website.
What would happen if you have an in-person class but then have to quarantine?
When a student attending an in-person course is required to quarantine for 14 days, the student should notify their professor immediately. Faculty will work directly with the student to determine what type of accommodations work best for that course.
Fall 2021 nycTRECs will be conducted in person and in New York. Adherence to Drew’s vaccination policy is particularly important for our nycTREC participants, as many of our on-site partners in New York may mandate fully vaccinated visitors this fall. We will continue to monitor the situation per Drew’s health and safety guidelines, as well as all the other resources we use to track conditions in New York. We are prepared to adapt if the conditions on campus or in the city require that we do so.
While we expect a smooth fall semester in New York, it is important to remember that the details for the fall 2021 nycTRECs can change at any time, whether that be in response to New York City guidelines, regulations of our on site partners, a change in Drew’s policies, or another one of the many moving pieces. Patience and flexibility will be important.
Please contact the Center for Global Education at globaled@drew.edu with any questions.
I plan to come to campus for the fall semester and have not had the COVID vaccine. Will Drew provide the vaccine to me?
Drew is working with local providers to obtain access to the vaccine for our students. We will work with students to assist in obtaining the vaccine when students return to campus for the fall semester.
Do I need to return early to get the vaccine before classes start on August 30th?
YES. Students who will be living on campus and need a vaccine should plan to arrive on August 10 or August 11 between office hours, 9am-5pm. If you are arriving after office hours, you will need to stay at a local hotel or with friends. A local vaccine provider will come to campus to administer the vaccine the week of August 9th while you are in quarantine. Drew will also coordinate a COVID test upon arrival to campus.
Current students who live off campus can make their own arrangements to get the vaccine before classes begin on August 30th. We recommend that you arrive early so that you have time to be fully vaccinated before the semester begins.
New students on the F-1 visa are allowed entry to the US 30 days prior to the program start date. Students from countries with a prior travel ban who may now qualify for the NIE waiver, please carefully read the information below from the US Department of State.
Do I need to quarantine and for how long?
Yes, non-vaccinated students will need to quarantine per CDC guidance for 7 days. While this does not limit full movement, some restrictions around campus will be in place. Face coverings and social distancing will be required for students who are not fully vaccinated by the start of classes on August 30th.
Students who are already vaccinated will not need to be quarantined per current CDC guidance. This guidance is always subject to change.
Will Drew provide housing and dining for the early arrival period and what are the costs?
Drew will provide housing and dining and will only charge the cost of dining during a vaccine/quarantine period. This is roughly $20 per day.
What if I cannot arrive early - can I still get the vaccine and take classes on campus this fall?
Yes, we will work with students who cannot arrive early due to delays acquiring a visa. You may be limited in your ability to attend in-person campus activities until enough time has passed from your first vaccination date or any required quarantine.
I have received a vaccine that has not been approved in the US - will Drew accept this vaccine?
Drew will be accepting FDA EUA approved vaccines and WHO EUL vaccinations. These include:
As of May 25, 2021, WHO has listed the following COVID-19 vaccines for emergency use:
- Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccines (e.g., COMIRNATY, Tozinameran)
- AstraZeneca-Oxford COVID-19 vaccines (e.g., Covishield, Vaxzevria)
- Janssen (Johnson & Johnson) COVID-19 vaccine
- Moderna COVID-10 vaccine
- Sinopharm COVID-19 vaccine
- Sinovac COVID-19 vaccine
This list will be updated as additional COVID-19 vaccines receive an emergency use listing from WHO. The ISSS office will send new FAQs via email immediately if this policy is updated with additional vaccines.
I have a valid F-1 visa. Do I need to apply for a National Interest Exemption (NIE) waiver if I am from China, Iran, Brazil, South Africa, India, the Schengen Area, India, the United Kingdom, or Ireland?
At the end of April, the Department of State made a statement that certain travelers, including students with F-1 visas from China, Iran, Brazil, South Africa, India, the Schengen Area, the United Kingdom, or Ireland, may be eligible for a National Interest Exemption (NIE) waiver.
Excerpt from the May 13 Update:
Students with valid F-1 and M-1 visas intending to begin or continue an academic program, including optional practical training (OPT), starting August 1, 2021 or later do not need to contact an embassy or consulate to travel. They may enter the United States no earlier than 30 days before the start of their academic program. Students seeking to apply for new F-1 or M-1 visas should check the status of visa services at the nearest embassy or consulate; those applicants who are found to be otherwise qualified for an F-1 or M-1 visa will automatically be considered for an NIE to travel.
It is our understanding that current students with a valid visa and an Active SEVIS record (which you will have if you maintained full-time registration since March 2020) will be allowed to enter the US up to 30 days prior to the start of the semester on August 30.
If you took a leave of absence and do not have an Active SEVIS record, please contact ISSS@drew.edu to request a new I-20.
I am a new student or a continuing student who is applying for the F-1 visa, but have not received approval yet. Do I need to apply for a National Interest Exemption (NIE) waiver if I am from China, Iran, Brazil, South Africa, India, the Schengen Area, the United Kingdom, or Ireland?
It is our understanding that new students who obtain an F-1 visa will be automatically considered for the NIE waiver at the time of the visa application and should be allowed to enter 30 days prior to the start date on the I-20. Please refer to the information below for a detailed explanation.

I am a new graduate international student and currently in my home country. May I take online/remote classes?
New students who are unable to travel to the U.S. because of visa issues may be able to begin their studies online from their home country if online courses are available.
Students in the Theological School, please work with the Director of Graduate Academic Services for fall registration so that you have courses which may be taken in person or online. Please contact shessler@drew.edu to further discuss.
Students in Caspersen School of Graduate Studies, please contact your program convener or the Director of Graduate Academic Services (shessler@drew.edu).
If you are unable to secure a visa appointment and have received an I-20, your SEVIS record will be deferred. You will be issued an updated I-20 for the semester you plan to begin your studies on campus. The SEVIS number will remain the same – you do not have to pay the SEVIS fee again and F-1 visas that were issued for the original I-20 continue to be valid.
I am an international student and currently in the U.S. May I take online/remote classes?
INTO Pathway and Academic English students are required to take classes for the fall semester in person. If you need a course that is only offered online, please discuss with the INTO Academic Director or Pathway program manager for a case by case evaluation.
Degree seeking students in the Caspersen or the Theological School who were registered full-time for the spring 2021 semester, and were engaged in full-time study in the US for the spring and fall 2020 semesters, are eligible to take classes in a variety of formats: in-person, hybrid or 100% online. Students who began their studies in the US in fall 2020 or spring 2021, must have at least one in-person class. In order to maintain status, graduate students must enroll in a minimum of 9 credits.
I am a current international student studying in my home country. May I take online/remote classes?
Drew plans to return to an in-person format for most classes for the fall 2021 semester. If you are outside the US and are not able to return to the US because of visa issues or travel restrictions, you must contact your academic advisor to determine if there are sufficient online courses available for you to study online from your home country.
If you have questions please contact;
CLA Dean’s Office: fyadvising@drew.edu
Theological School: shessler@drew.edu
Caspersen: shessler@drew.edu
In order to maintain status, undergraduate students must enroll in a minimum of 12 credits; graduate students 9 credits. If a student drops below full-time enrollment, the SEVIS record will be terminated. A new I-20 can be created when the student is ready to return to campus.
Am I eligible for funding through the CARES Act?
Drew University has distributed all initial CARES Act funding to qualified students who have applied. We are in the process of implementing a plan for the distribution of additional funds. Our focus will be to distribute the funds in the best way possible to serve the needs of our students affected by COVID. Information will be sent via Drew email and posted here as soon as it is available.
How will my need-based financial aid be affected if I am attending remotely?
Need based financial aid is awarded to students as a result of their actual costs in attending Drew. All need-based awards for the fall term will be reviewed and adjusted accordingly.
If I deferred my enrollment, will my merit scholarship be honored?
Merit awards are honored for students who defer enrollment. Need-based aid for the spring 2021 term will be honored as well. For students deferring enrollment until fall 2021, need-based aid will be re-evaluated, as it is with all students, once we receive the 2021–2022 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
How does a leave of absence affect my aid?
Merit awards are honored for students who take a leave of absence. Need-based aid for the spring 2021 term will be honored as well. For students returning from a leave in Fall 2021, Need-based aid will be re-evaluated, as it is with all students, once we receive the 2021–2022 Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA).
Since most insurance policies exclude pandemics, is there any value in securing tuition insurance for the academic year?
Students should review and assess their individual needs for insurance. Drew has a partnership with a third party servicer, Grad Guard, in order to offer a Tuition Protection Plan to interested students/families. Students must be enrolled in this plan before the first day of the term to qualify. Refer to their website for more information, including frequently asked questions, including coverage regarding COVID-19.
I have a question about my tuition bill. Who should I contact?
- Inquiries regarding Loans, Grants, Awards and Scholarships should be directed to
Financial Aid at finaid@drew.edu - Inquiries regarding the update of Housing and Meal plans should be directed to
Residence Life at reslife@drew.edu - Inquiries for all other questions regarding Tuition and Fees should be addressed to Student Accounts at studentaccounts@drew.edu
Am I able to receive financial aid as a part-time student?
Students should contact the Office of Financial Assistance for information on how being enrolled in fewer than 12 credits may affect their financial aid award.

They will follow up with you regarding details such as cables, network connectivity, etc. Please take pictures of the computer and cables prior to unplugging anything. For those who have Windows desktops, while still on campus, you should turn on the desktop, login, and open all Microsoft Office products you intend to use (e.g. Word, Excel). This will ensure that all updates are installed and that a 180-day “clock” starts with a fresh 180 days for Office to continue to work. Once those steps are followed, you may proceed with taking the equipment home. As a reminder, Drew technology is to be used exclusively by the employee, not anyone else. Additional questions can be directed to helpdesk@drew.edu.
What do I do if I am working from home and I need supplies?
Ask your supervisor if you may purchase the supplies. The supervisor will be responsible for ensuring budget funds are available. Once approval is received, submit your order using the online methods available for ordering.

Information can be found on the Procurement website under the “How To” guides.
What do I do if I am working from home, need to use my personal phone for phone calls, and I don’t want my phone number to show on caller ID?
Dial *67 before you dial the phone number. That will block your phone number from appearing on Caller ID.
Am I allowed to use my University vehicle?
Shared University vehicles and golf carts must be cleaned and disinfected after each use or regularly between shifts. When possible, employees will utilize the same vehicle throughout the working shift, and the vehicle will not contain more than one individual. In the event two individuals (at a maximum) need to share the vehicle, windows will be opened to increase ventilation, and face coverings must be worn.
What will technology support look like for Faculty and Staff?
