Abstract: COVID-19 has altered students' expectations for attending in-person learning. We qualitatively explored barriers and facilitators of undergraduates for attending in-person courses. A survey, distributed Winter 2022, included items regarding reasons why students did or didn't attend in-person and suggested facilitators to attend. The most reported reason for attending in-person included students having increased focus. The most reported barrier included inconvenient commutes. The main facilitator was mandatory/graded attendance. COVID-19, overwhelmingly, wasn't a reason for missing in-person classes. Instructors aware of factors affecting student attendance can address barriers or emphasize facilitators for attending class to fully support student learning as COVID-19 persists.
