SUNY Orange’s Fall semester will include a blend of in-person and remote academic offerings for students, along with mostly online support services and a phased plan for repopulating the Middletown and Newburgh campuses with employees.

The College, on Tuesday (July 7), received official certification of its plan from the State University of New York.

The semester will open on Monday, Aug. 24, as originally scheduled, and final exams will conclude on Saturday, Dec. 12. On-campus instruction, which will account for approximately 15 percent of the College’s total curriculum, will be curtailed on Tuesday, Nov. 24 as a precaution against projections of a resurgence of the coronavirus.

Post-Thanksgiving instruction for those courses will be held remotely.
