University at Buffalo CDP issued the following announcement on April 6
The faculty, staff and students of the Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at UB continue to respond in various ways to the COVID-19 pandemic in Western New York.
The Governor’s Executive Order enables members of our Class of 2020 to volunteer to participate as new members of the Western New York health care workforce.
We expect that members of our Class of 2020 will graduate on May 1, the original graduation date on the academic calendar.
However, should the apex of patients hospitalized overwhelm our health care workforce, we will be prepared to graduate early medical students who have both completed all of their education requirements and volunteer to be available.
Additional information on the university’s response to COVID-19 is available on UB’s COVID-19 website.
