02/28/2020

At Campbellsville University, the health and well-being of our students, faculty, coaches, and staff is our first priority. We have been closely monitoring world news about the Coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak throughout this global health emergency and will continue to do so. There are currently no confirmed cases at Campbellsville University and according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the threat to most Americans remains low at this time.  

Campbellsville University is a diverse community and is home to students, faculty, coaches, and staff from many nations and cultures. As the world continues to face this crisis, please continue to show these members of the CU community your support and keep them in your thoughts and prayers as they are worried about loved ones at home. 

As a precaution, Campbellsville University has suspended university travel to China and South Korea and continues to monitor State Department travel advisories for all university sponsored travel. We also encourage you to stay up to date on current advisories if you intend to travel outside of the United States.
