For learning technology tools and on-demand faculty resources, please visit CAL’s website.

Students: Due to inclement weather, the university will be closed to face-to-face operations. Instruction will be moved to emergency remote, including synchronous and asynchronous methods. Certain laboratory, clinical, and other hands-on classes for which in-person instruction is a requirement may necessitate a make-up lesson, but every effort will be made to pursue virtual learning to the extent possible. Where synchronous virtual instruction is intended, published class meeting times must be observed so that students’ schedules are not disrupted.

The safety and security of our students, faculty, staff, and the broader community remain our top priority. We will continue to provide updates regarding the status of the university’s academic and administrative offices as conditions change.

Please continue to check our website and social media channels for the latest information.

If you have any safety concerns, contact OPSEM at 202-274-5050. For all immediate emergencies, call 911.

Thank you for your continued dedication to our students and to UDC’s mission.

Vocational Rehabilitation Program Students

If you have been approved for the Vocational Rehabilitation Program, you will need to ensure that your assigned Department of Veteran Affairs case manager has submitted an authorization (DVA 22-1905; Authorization and Certification of Entrance or Re-Entrance into Rehabilitation and Certification of Status) to UDC Veteran Services Office before the start of the semester you will be attending. You will also need to complete the UDC VA Education Enrollment Request Form.

Students that have been approved for Chapter 31 (Vocational Rehabilitation) benefits should know that the VA will cover the tuition for your pre-approved program. Additionally, the VA will cover all required textbooks and up to $50 in supplies per semester. Should your supplies exceed the $50 limit, you must meet with the Director of Military and Veteran Student Services, Sequoyah Adebayo.

Every semester, you must complete the UDC VA Education Enrollment Request Form. This alerts the university that you would like us to request funds from the VA to cover your expenses. Before getting textbooks from the bookstore, you must pick up a book voucher from the Director of Military and Veteran Student Services, Sequoyah Adebayo.
