We have updated our COVID-19 dashboard to further enhance transparency.
The University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign COVID-19 dashboard now includes even more data points and greater detail.
We are reminding our university community to maintain their regular testing schedule and follow COVID-19 safety protocols.
Continue to check the testing locations page or your Safer Illinois app before testing at your usual location. Please note that this semester, students who are out of compliance may also lose access to university Wi-Fi, Zoom, Compass and other technologies.
We are offering additional study spaces for students through on-campus study halls.
Study halls are opportunities for students to study in select on-campus classrooms. Supported by the Wellness Ambassador program, student ambassadors will maximize well-being by following university safety protocols, including face coverings and adherence to room capacity.

We are continuing to share updated vaccine information.

In making decisions about courses, consultation with academic advisors, college offices and the Office of Student Financial Aid for students receiving aid is strongly encouraged. As is always the case, students facing exceptionally difficult or unexpected circumstances that may require other accommodations continue to have the option to seek assistance through their college office.
A more detailed FAQ will be available on the Office of the Provost’s policies website within the next few days.
