The University of Iowa has cancelled all spring youth programs in light of the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

School officials say after considering the health and safety of program participants and UI students, faculty, and staff, they have made the difficult decision that the UI will not offer spring semester in-person youth programs from Jan. 1st through May 14th, 2021. Youth programs include, but are not limited to, sports camps, academic programs, research, and wildlife camps.

Departments that want to conduct virtual programs for minors must follow the guidance laid out in the University’s Minors on Campus Policy, including registering a program by following this link in UI Workflow. Additionally, programs should refer to the Online Youth Programs Manual for specific requirements regarding virtual programming.

Exception requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis. To request an exception, contact the Office of the Provost at provost-office@uiowa.edu.
