COVID-19

The University College Maastricht Study Association has created a protocol that would ensure that students can continue to enjoy events whilst still keeping all the regulations in mind. For the moment, the rule established to plan events for the semester has been to keep all events online or at an external location for the first period of class (seven weeks). After that time period, the Social Board has determined that there would either be events hosted on-site with specific rules and protocols that will need to be respected or they will need to be safely held off-site or online. For more information about the calendar and events the Social Board scheduled for the semester, please see our calendar.
