Masks and Social Distancing

Note: for the most current details about wearing masks and face coverings while on campus, go to our Campus Entry Procedures webpage.

Continuing Fall Quarter masks, for the most part, will be “optional but encouraged” at Seattle Colleges. This aligns with state and local guidelines. If public health conditions change, community levels increase, or there are future surges or new variants, face covering requirements will be reassessed.

All students, faculty, staff, and community members should continue to bring a mask when visiting any of our campuses or locations. Any areas requiring masks will be clearly marked with new signage, and masks will continue to be provided at centralized locations on each campus.

Please respect those who continue to wear masks for their own health, safety, or comfort.
