Dear students and prospective students, Due to the precautions taken against Covid19, we are continuing our education on online platforms.

The nature of learning from home is different from the nature of face to face education in a classroom environment. Considering the difficulties hampering our daily lives today, it is natural that some of our students may have a hard time adapting to learning from home. Below, we offer some tips that we hope will be helpful:

• Above all, remember that your health matters the most. Make sure to take good care of your physical and mental health.
• It is important that you regularly attend the synchronous (live) classes since it will help you to maintain the routine you established during the academic year. The departmental schedule for synchronous classes is prepared in conformity with the course schedule set for the Spring 2020 semester. 
• In order to ensure your involvement in the required course work, try and keep up with the readings that are uploaded on CATS until the due dates indicated on the syllabi.
• Take note of the dates and deadlines of the upcoming assignments, quizzes, and exams and make sure you put in sufficient amount of study by those due dates.
• After completing your readings and handing in your assignments, do something to relax and keep your mind off the schoolwork.
• Although maintaining a social life is as important as the academic success itself, we are going through a phase in our lives in which this is practically impossible. Keeping this in mind, we stress that during this period of staying home, you try and improve your abilities in different areas by focusing on your hobbies and things that you have an interest in.
• Remember that you can contact us about any questions you may have through any platform.
