The Glasgow School of Art has confirmed that the next Academic Year will begin on 14 September 2020.
Having assessed a number of options, the GSA’s Academic Continuity Group and the Senior Leadership Group decided that the Academic Year should commence for all students as planned. Continuing students and applicants have been advised of this.
The plans for the 2020-21 Academic Year are being informed by the developing guidance from the UK and Scottish Governments as well as the approaches of the wider higher education sector.
The GSA will be detailing how the teaching and learning will be delivered on a safe campus in the context of the ongoing Government Covid-19 guidance. It is likely that there will be a hybrid model of studio, technical workshop, practical work and digital deliverywhich will allow students to enrol and commence their studies in Glasgow or remotely.
Updated information will be issued to continuing students and applicants as the guidance from the UK and Scottish Governments develops.
