Hello all,
Pardon the delay, things have been hectic, as we have a 1,5 credit course presentation today.
I do not believe visas will be affected, although with government officials working from home lead times to obtain these may be longer. Travel can obviously be affected.
Unless next year gets cancelled, its highly unlikely you get your deposit back. The deposit is your placeholder reservation fee, so they don't fill up your spot with someone else.
At this time the campus is closed, until April 15th, but I'm expecting it will remain so until end of april. It depends on the government's assessment of the situation Mid-april.
We fully switched to online classes, and while yes, we miss human interaction, its working surprisingly well. The professors are even more engaged than usual and it's actually a lot easier to participate.
All in all, its not as bad of a situation (for us young people, don't get me wrong, this is a pandemic!) as it appears to be, and I do expect this to be resolved before o, at the latest, during the summer.
Hope this eases your worries
