covid protocols for fall: safe, smart, and healthy at csm
With the rise in COVID-19 cases across the country and the state, CSM is adapting our health and safety guidelines to help ensure our community’s well-being. As we move to Phase 4 of the college’s Return to Campus Plan, some COVID-19-related restrictions will remain in place, including mask requirements as noted below.
Masks must be worn in the following spaces, regardless of vaccination status:
- CSM College Stores, libraries, computer labs, testing centers, and other student support spaces
- Classrooms, labs, and other instructional spaces
- Office areas when in the presence of others
- Any space where 6 feet physical distancing cannot be maintained
If you are not fully vaccinated, you are strongly encouraged to wear a mask or face covering at all times for your protection and the protection of others. For more information, visit our public safety portal at www.csmd.edu/ready.
looking to the horizon: pre-transfer agreements
Did you know that CSM has pre-transfer agreements with five institutions throughout the region? These are programs designed to provide CSM students access to opportunities and benefits at four-year institutions while you are still enrolled at CSM. These programs are free and you do not commit to these institutions by participating in them, so if you change your mind about where you want to transfer there are no repercussions.
These programs include:
St. Mary's College of Maryland's STEP Program
Temple University's Dual Admission Program
University of Baltimore's BeeLine Program
University of Maryland Baltimore County (UMBC)'s Transfer Student Alliance (TSA)
University of Maryland College Park's Maryland Transfer Advantage Program (MTAP)
go farther and achieve more, with 18 new transfer opportunities
The college recently finalized 18 new articulation agreements with four different four-year institutions, providing our CSM Hawks with even more choices for continuing their higher education beyond their associate degree.
University of Maryland Global Campus: Business Administration; Communication Studies; Criminal Justice; English; General Studies; Graphic Communication; Homeland Security; Management Studies; Public Safety Administration
Old Dominion University Online: Accounting; Computer Science; Criminal Justice; Finance; Human Services; Management; Marketing
