The Scottish Government issued new guidance for students urging them to remain in isolation where possible - however they can return home on a long-term basis.
Richard Lochhead, the Minister for Further Education, Higher Education and Science, has addressed university principals and student accommodation chiefs with new measures.
The guidance still encourages students to remain on campus if they are able to do so, but returning home long-term is an option if they remain in isolation.
Several universities have seen large numbers of students testing positive since they returned. Institutions told learners that they weren't allowed to socialise with anyone outside their accommodation over the weekend.
Glasgow University revealed it will refund all students in halls of residence one month's rent, along with a £50 payment for food.
It comes as a number of new measures come into force across the country as cases continue to rise.
Scots are now banned from inviting anyone else into their home or entering into someone else’s home.
While pubs and restaurants will be forced to close from 10pm and table service will be required in all premises.
Anyone found to be in breach of the rules could face a fine of up to £10,000 under the coronavirus legislation.
