Full On-Campus Operations for Spring 2022

Spring 2022 classes, research and other activities will begin as scheduled on Tuesday, Jan. 18. 

Staff and students at the university were able to keep the spread of COVID-19 minimal in the fall by adhering to comprehensive risk reduction strategies. While we recognize the omicron variant is more contagious, we’re confident the UMass Lowell community’s near universal vaccination status and other risk mitigation measures will enable us to continue with our core educational mission.

The university will continue to monitor and adjust its public health procedures as state and federal agencies adjust their guidance.
