REMOTE AND HYBRID COURSES

During the 2021-22 academic year, Sarah Lawrence will offer a limited number of remote and hybrid options for students who may be unable to return to in-person instruction due to the COVID-19 pandemic. All Sarah Lawrence students are eligible to enroll in these courses, but priority will be given to those who cannot live on nor commute to campus.

Entirely Remote

Remote courses are conducted entirely online, including conferences, group conferences, etc. While students enrolled remotely will be given priority for these classes, space permitting, students studying in-person may also enroll. All aspects of this course will take place online whether students are enrolled on campus or remotely.

Hybrid (Remote/In-Person)

Hybrid courses include both online and in-person elements. Since different disciplines lend themselves to different approaches, and different faculty members teaching hybrid courses will incorporate in-person and remote elements differently, students need to use the registration process, including pre-interview materials as well as interviews, to clarify what a particular hybrid course will entail. Again, while students enrolled remotely will be given priority for these classes, space permitting, students studying in-person may also enroll.
