Brandeis University Extends Transfer Deadline in Response to Campus Protests

The extension aims to provide a safer environment for students amid increasing antisemitic incidents during ongoing protests.

Brandeis University has extended its transfer application deadline to May 31, offering refuge to students affected by campus protests.
The protests, sparked by the Israel-Hamas conflict, have led to antisemitic attacks and intimidation at various U.S. universities.
Brandeis, known for its historical ties to the Jewish community, emphasizes its commitment to a harassment-free educational environment.
Protests have escalated across campuses, with some institutions like Columbia University moving classes online to ensure student safety.
The university's president highlighted the need to protect students from antisemitism and support their academic pursuits in a secure setting.
