  5. A message from International Programs on Coronavirus

    | by Carlos Vélez

    I wanted to reach out to all of you with information related to the coronavirus situation. Some of you may already have received country-specific information from your on-site program staff. I know this is the case for those of you enrolled in some of Middlebury’s Schools Abroad. I write to ask all of you to follow the advice you’re receiving both from your on-site staff as well as from local emergency officials.

  7. Middlebury School in China suspended for the spring

    | by Carlos Vélez

    The CDC and State Department recently raised their risk advice to Level 3 (“avoid nonessential travel” and “reconsider travel”). Several colleges and universities and study abroad providers have suspended their programs and/or banned all travel to China. The list will likely expand rapidly within the next couple of days. Considering all this, as well as other factors, we have decided to suspend the School in China (all three sites) this spring.
