Government planning for testing capacity over festive period
More than 90% of Manx university students are planning to return to the Isle of Man for Christmas.
Government contacted the 934 individuals registered with the education department studying off Island to ask about their plans for travelling home over the festive period.
The responses will be used to help government plan for testing capacity.
Education Minister Dr Alex Allinson says students will return over several weeks:
