Jan. 28 Transition to Virtual Operations, Campus Closed

Bowie State University will be transitioning to virtual operations for all classes and office operations on Wednesday, January 28, 2026. The campus will be closed to all non-essential personnel, and all campus activities are canceled. All buildings except residence halls will be closed. Essential personnel should report on time. This is due to the extended time required to clear the extensive snow and ice accumulation on campus. University crews are making every effort to resume campus operations, as a safe return to in-person learning and work remains our top priority. Only essential personnel and residential students are permitted access to the campus on Jan. 28. For more information, please visit BowieState.edu/weather.

iCAN Student Video Tutorial

iCAN, powered by Starfish Retention Solutions, is an early warning and student tracking system that makes it possible for faculty to easily identify at-risk students before they withdraw. What otherwise is a labor-intensive, manual process, the system collates and assesses student performance information automatically submitted by instructors, advisors and campus staff—giving faculty a holistic view of which students are struggling.

iCAN also facilitates meaningful contact between students and their instructors, advisors and counselors. The system encourages students to engage more deeply in their academic lives by connecting them to the people and resources in place to help them succeed.

Learn about iCAN, a new way to connect to students and contribute to student success, learning and satisfaction.
