University College London, UK’s largest campus, defies official call for earlier return
University College London, the UK’s largest campus, has told its students to avoid returning until the end of February at the earliest because of the rapid spread of the new Covid-19 variant in the capital.
The move puts UCL at odds with the guidelines issued by the Department for Education last week, which called for most students to stay away from campuses in England until 25 January, with only those on courses such as medicine or nursing allowed back initially.
