Dear Parents and Students,
The university would like to inform you that due to the severity of
the coronavirus infection, the university has decided to postpone the
opening date from the ending of February to March, in accordance to the
requirement of relevant authorities. The purpose is to ensure students
safety and health. In that regards, university authorities require that the
following be observed:
1. Students who have left school are not allowed to return to
school ahead of time before the school officially announces the
registration day. Please understand and adhere to the instructions
given. Again, want to reiterate that the university will deal severely
with any students who return to school without permission from the
school.
2. Students who have been to Hubei province, during the winter
vacation (or any way) or have come into contact with confirmed
patients, must take the initiative to report truthfully to the university.
Failure to report would attract adverse consequences when found
and would be punished according to the relevant rules and
regulations of the university.
We advise students not to purchase tickets in advance. Notice of
reopening would be communicated. Please wait for an
announcement from the school.
At this critical moment, the overall situation is the primary focus.
Our responsibility is to ensure the safety of all students and staffs. Also,
want to advise everyone to take individual responsibility of themselves by
taking strict protective measures!
Thank you for your cooperation.
