This page complements information already provided by the University registrar re: Fall 2020 courses.
Registrar resources:

the registrar's course roster for CS.

Notes:

1. Although "remote access" had been discussed previously as an option (subtly) distinct "online", no such distinction will be implemented. 
2. We only list courses "parented" by the CS department, since we can only vouch for information controlled by the CS department. 
3. Regarding students for whom the Ithaca time zone will not be between 8am and 10pm local time (henceforth "distant" students): you may be wondering whether or not distant students will have alternatives to any Ithaca-synchronous participation/attendance-based grades and/or will have access to sections/office hours at accessible times.  For now, assume at a minimum that all lectures will be recorded, and assume that many courses will make such adjustments, unless noted otherwise below or on the course website for definitive course-specific policies.
4. Regarding students who are in the Ithaca area, in a class that has in-person exams, and registered for an online version of a course component: we have decided not to implement a department-wide policy as to whether such students must must  take the in-person exam in-person, or whether an alternative will be available. Thus, the decision is up to the individual instructors.
5. For CS3410 and CS 4xxx and higher in-person class meetings, students affiliated with the CS major and CS masters and graduate students will have the highest enrollment priority.

Questions about individual course's policies: contact the course instructor(s). The webpages for CS courses have a standard access URL of the form https://cs.cornell.edu/courses/csXXXX/2020fa, where XXXX is the course number (e.g., "1110").
