When students describe Tyndale University, they often talk about the warm, community experience and relationships that are formed over spontaneous conversations, meals, Chapel and worship, sports and House competitions.
Tyndale is finalizing academic plans for the fall term, with the majority of undergraduate courses and activities returning to the in-person format. University officials continue to monitor the COVID-19 situation and are following the advice of local, provincial and national health organizations to ensure the safety of Tyndale students, faculty, and staff.
