Campus Guidelines: COVID-19

American Islamic College has kept a careful watch upon unfolding events and remains vigilant in monitoring the CONTINUING Covid-19 pandemic. After much consultation and in cooperation with the Illinois Board of Higher Education (IBHE) and the Higher Learning Commission (HLC), we have extended our emergency shift from face-to-face, on site education to online/remote learning for the duration of the fall semester (August-December, 2021). The College (including the library) will remain open so that students can consult the administration and use the collection and computers for their research. Students are also welcome to use campus computers to attend their Zoom classes if they do not have the tools or internet access at home.  We are confident that there will be no lapse in the quality of course content or standards during this period of emergency.

Our commitment to your well-being remains paramount, and so we urge you to contact us if you experience problems or complications as a result of this pandemic arrangement. Be assured that health, wellness, and safety guidelines are strictly observed at the College. More information on this can be found here.

AIC is committed to science-based, medically approved practices that safeguard the health and safety of everyone at the College and within the wider community.  Vaccination is thus strongly encouraged and both mask-wearing and social distancing are required whenever anyone is on campus.  This includes the dormitories and the masjid or prayer hall.  Individuals who choose not to be vaccinated for any reason (medical, religious, or other) are urged to be especially meticulous in their mask wearing, social distancing, and hygiene (esp. hand washing), and we recommend that they voluntarily get themselves tested on a weekly basis as an extra precautionary measure.

Public Events

We have a shared responsibility for safeguarding each other.

In accordance with federal, state, and local guidelines, AIC has adopted the following policy for large-attendance public events on campus.

Guests’ decision to attend a public event on campus serves as their acknowledgement of the potential risks posed to them by COVID-19, particularly for those unvaccinated.

  • Face masks must be worn by anyone coming to campus regardless of vaccination status. In other words, both vaccinated and unvaccinated individuals must wear a mask and socially distance when on the College property.
  • Social distancing will be observed and enforced.
  • Proof of ID and vaccination will be checked by a trained and designated staff member upon entrance to the building. City mandate requires vaccination. Those without proof of vaccination may join virtually. Live-streaming of the event will be available for those who do not wish to provide this information at the door. Please note that these safety measures are to ensure the safety of everyone in attendance.

Visitors traveling to Illinois must fully comply with the City of Chicago Travel Advisory before coming to campus.
