Bay College will require all students, staff, faculty, and visitors to wear a face covering that covers the mouth and nose when indoors on college property. Employees will not be required to wear a face covering while in their office.

Social distancing and hygiene protocols will be followed at both schools.

Bay College and the local health departments will offer free walk-in vaccination clinics on campuses for the single dose Johnson & Johnson vaccine during the first week of classes.
