Anna Maria College is welcoming students back to campus for the fall semester. New and returning students started moving in Monday and move ins will be by appointment only for the rest of the week.

The college is taking a lot of precautions and all students will quarantine for 24 hours after they move in until they get results from a negative COVID-19 test.

Anna Maria has a 47-page Return-to-Campus Handbook detailing how they'll proceed with classes amid the pandemic.

"We're going to be very vigilant about masks, about distancing, about the spacing in the classrooms. The dining hall is set up on a reservation system on Open Table so we're never overcrowding the dining hall. We'll continue to do the surveillance testing, so everyone will be tested twice weekly, that way if anything pops up, we'll be able to isolate and quarantine immediately," said Drew Klein, vice president of Student Affairs at Anna Maria College.

Classes at Anna Maria start on August 24.

The college will test all campus community members for COVID-19 every other week at no cost. The school has also installed more than 150 hand sanitizing stations, increased cleaning processes, and suspended fall sports.
