Support for Students
On-Campus Students
The Dean of Students Office is ready to support you. They may be reached at 781-736-3600.
You may pick up to go meals from the dining halls using a green to-go, or a compostable, container. If you don’t have a to-go container, please contact BCTP and one will be provided to you. For other “food on the go” information visit Starship Mobile. Please wear a mask at all times while picking up meals.
As long as your health allows, plan to continue working on your classes while in isolation. Upon entering isolation, please notify your instructors and ask for ways to participate remotely. Students should arrange directly with their faculty members to receive class materials for classes that are missed due to required quarantine or isolation, just as they would do for any other illness that required them to miss a class.
The providers at the Health Center and the BCTP, in collaboration with the local board of health, based on testing results, dates of exposure and symptom assessment will make a clinical determination regarding the date of release from isolation (for both on-campus and off-campus students).
The Health Center and Brandeis Counseling Center are available for telehealth services and will assist in coordinating care with health care providers and arranging delivery of medications.
In case of an emergency, Brandeis will arrange transportation to a local hospital.
To leave isolation, you must receive approval from the BCTP.
