Due to the continued surge in COVID-19 cases in San Diego County, Miramar College will offer most Spring 2022 classes and services remotely through February 22, 2022. This is a continuation of a policy put in place on January 3, 2022. However, several "hard to convert classes" will meet face to face on campus beginning January 31, 2022. Please check your student portal and/or email for further information from your instructor.
The exception continues to be athletics and Intersession classes that are currently being held on campus. All athletic program activities will continue as scheduled and our athletic teams will be subject to weekly testing. Both athletics and instruction will follow their currently adopted COVID-19 protocols. Spectators are now permitted at home athletic events starting Jan. 24, 2022.
All Student Services offices, including Student Health, will primarily be operating remotely until February 22, 2022. All Offices will provide virtual services between 8:00 am - 6:00 pm Monday through Thursday and from 8:00 am to 1:00 pm on Fridays. During the first few days of school (January 31 - February 3), the Student Services Division will have staff on campus manning outdoor information booths to welcome students taking live courses, provide resource information, and guide students and the general public to the appropriate virtual services. Students and the general public are advised to visit the department webpage for more detailed information. Also check your email and Canvas messages in your portal for additional information.
The Library will be closed to student access through Feb. 22 as a way to limit large gatherings on campus.

Change in SDCCD Vaccination Exemption Policy
As part of its efforts to help mitigate the spread of COVID-19, effective June 2021 SDCCD required proof of vaccination for all students wishing to take in-person classes or to participate in in-person activities/services that may last over 15 minutes. For the Fall 2021 semester, students who had an approved medical or religious exemption were also allowed to enroll in in-person classes or access in-person activities/services. With the significant increase of COVID-19 cases during the winter season, SDCCD now requires students to be fully vaccinated or have an approved medical exemption in order to take in-person classes or to participate in in-person activities/services that may last over 15 minutes. Students who do not meet these criteria may only access online courses and remote services (when lasting over 15 minutes).
Courses scheduled to be in-person will proceed as planned, based on enrollment. Currently, the majority of enrollments are in online courses, so there will likely be fewer in-person classes than initially planned.
We apologize for any inconvenience that this may create and appreciate your understanding and cooperation as we do our best to assist with limiting the spread of the virus.
