Dear Students,

We hope you remain healthy and productive despite this period of constant change and uncertainty. We recognize these are challenging times, and we will work with you as we navigate the remainder of the semester, together. To that end, below is a compilation of information related to the current semester and Fall semester registration and advising. As always, please visit LMU's Coronavirus Website (AccessibleEn Espanol) for the latest information.

Spring 2020 - Important Updates

  • Online Instruction
    Due to the recent spread of COVID-19, the university delayed the beginning of online instruction to today, March 23.
