What does it mean to close a college or university?

The closure of colleges and universities means that students are prohibited from entering or exiting the school.

School closure refers to an act of closing a school when the number of students on the campus falls below a certain standard. Generally speaking, closed schools are university campuses. Especially during holidays, when there are too few students in the school, the remaining students are often unified into a dormitory building, registered, and issued with access permits to restrict outsiders from entering the school at will. .

According to the epidemic situation in the province where the university is located, if there is an epidemic in the province, the suspension time will be longer, otherwise it will be shorter. Because students mainly come from all over the country, once school starts, transportation in all directions must be prevented and controlled. There is no way to guarantee the safety of college students on their way back to school. After returning to school, students need to stay in the dormitory together, so there is a considerable risk of COVID-19 infection. In order to prevent and control the epidemic and strengthen management, all colleges and universities implement closed management to prevent students from going out to contract the epidemic and strengthen the protection of college students.
