Winter Break Surveillance Testing Schedule

Current plans for mandatory and optional testing are listed below. These may change if conditions warrant, so please pay attention for updated information.

Remember: Symptomatic and close contact testing are separate from surveillance testing, and you should contact the Health and Wellness Center (students) or your personal healthcare provider (faculty and staff) if you are experiencing COVID-like symptoms. For other types of testing, including symptomatic and close contact testing, reminders for how to make an appointment can be found here.
