Keiser University’s priority during and post-pandemic has always been the health and safety of our students, faculty, staff and visitors. We are pleased to confirm, with specific COVID-19 precautions and ongoing CDC established practices / protocols in place, all campuses (with the exceptions above) will reopen in a modified hybrid format on July 6, 2020.

They will provide you guidelines and procedures for returning to campus, continuing your online classes and assist you every step of the way.
As a member of Seahawk Nation, we are very proud of your persistence toward your degrees during this unprecedented time, and we thank you for your patience and understanding. Remember July 6, 2020, we will reopen in the modified hybrid format and we look forward to seeing you soon. Go Seahawks!

Dear Valued Students,
Today marks the beginning of the first new term (non-residential) for Keiser University students since the University went fully online. I cannot express my appreciation to all of our students, faculty and staff for making this transition so seamless. The university has been forced to make almost daily decisions to change policies in order to comply with evolving federal and state directives and to protect our campus communities. Nevertheless, you, our incredible students have continued to work online in a variety of conditions to complete your rigorous coursework to obtain your education. I am hoping this pandemic will soon be history. However, in the meantime, please continue your efforts to personally be in regular contact with your instructors and educational support staff. They can help you to overcome the hurdles you and your families may face. We are closely monitoring the pandemic and look forward to having all of you back in the classroom soon. Our entire staff realizes and appreciates the commitment you are making and I trust when the smoke clears you will feel a great sense of accomplishment. I hope you believe, as we do as an institution, that Keiser University was better prepared and structured than many colleges and universities in the country to meet this pandemic head on. Now is the time to work harder and smarter, albeit from home, to ensure that you can complete and achieve your educational goals and graduate with your degree.
Remember as Winston Churchill said during the darkest days of World War II, “Never, never give up!”
Sincerely,
Arthur Keiser, Ph.D.
Chancellor

Coming on Monday, March 30, 2020
At Keiser University, as we previously transitioned to an online format for our campus-based students, we continue to provide the student support services needed outside of the classroom environment. All students have access to a Math Help Center, Online Writing Lab (OWL), and Student Services Department, where assistance is provided. In the Math Help Center, for example, students can receive tutoring in subjects such as Algebra and Statistics. Math tutors will work problems with students and conduct live lectures to assist with math classes and learning. The Online Writing Lab (OWL) provides help for students with writing assignments and the APA format. Students can submit papers, receive feedback quickly and assistance in turning assignments timely to their online classroom. The Student Services Department provides the same services available to students on campus, such as resume writing, interview skills, referral services for where to go for help when life happens, and many other activities including new student orientation sessions and study strategies, etc. We know students who are used to face-to-face classrooms and now in a virtual world will need support, constant communication, and lifelines beyond the classroom. We encourage you to remain in touch as often as you need, we are here to assist!

** This message applies to all Keiser University Florida campuses including the Flagship campus. This message does not apply to the Latin American Campus of Keiser University in Nicaragua. **

On Monday, March 16, 2020, Keiser University transitioned all students to the online delivery system which has been ranked as one of the nation’s top postsecondary, digital education platforms (NICHE). At this time, our campus resources remain staffed and operational including the library, bookstore, computer labs, writing studio and accessibility to administration. Our staff is available in person or remotely to meet the needs of students, today and into the future, as we endure this situation together.
While we continue to navigate the uncertainty of COVID-19, it is important to note that all decisions made in regard to the continued operation of Keiser University during the advent of the pandemic are made with three core considerations:
Following CDC guidelines, we are practicing social distancing, limiting gatherings of no more than 10, applying even greater sanitation efforts and utilizing technology to support the continuity of each student’s education, and each employee’s position in support of our students. We launched an internal Task Force weeks ago to address this unprecedented national crisis. We are following the directives provided at the federal and state levels including the CDC, Florida Department of Health, and the Executive Office of the Governor.
COVID-19 provides all Americans and global citizens unprecedented challenges. It is one in which no contingency planning could ever possibly chart all potential outcomes or solutions to these outcomes. As more cases of COVID-19 emerge (partly because of the virus spreading and partly because of more prevalent testing), we recognize these feelings and tensions are felt by all and expressed by all.
Please call, text, email or message your campus administration as they are working day and night, in person and virtual, to support you as seamlessly as possible on your path to graduation.
