(Stephenville, Tx) – Tarleton State University says they are planning for a traditional college experience for Fall 2021, assuming current COVID-19 trends hold.

University President James Hurley says “As students and families plan for the fall 2021 semester, it’s important they know now that Tarleton is looking forward to more normal operations — like those prior to the pandemic,” Hurley added that the school “…will continue to follow all federal, state and local public health guidelines, and be ready to pivot.”

Tarleton moved classes online right after spring break 2020 to mitigate the spread.  Last May, the university announced its gates would fully reopen for Fall 2020, with classes offered online and a blend of face-to-face and online.  Athletic competitions moved to spring 2021, with a full Homecoming planned March 15-20, culminating with a game between the NCAA Division I Texans and the Midwestern State Mustangs.

Application for fall 2021 is open, with the first day of classes Aug. 19th.
