We are providing the latest information on our university COVID-19 website.

Our newly redesigned website is the central spot for university COVID-19 updates, resources and announcements.

We are providing requirements and expectations for Fall 2020.

Updated guidance is available for students, faculty and staff, including on-campus testing requirements and COVID-19 safety training.

We are encouraging current university faculty, staff and students to take advantage of free on-campus COVID-19 testing.

On-campus COVID-19 testing is required for all students, faculty and staff (beginning the week of Aug. 10 for faculty & staff and beginning the week of Aug. 16 for students) who have a need to be on campus for any reason or length of time. View the most updated hours and locations.

We are asking all students to update their address information.

Students enrolled for the Fall 2020 semester are required to provide their fall address information by August 17.

We are presenting the latest information on the university’s response to COVID-19.

All previous briefings are captioned and available to watch through our COVID-19 YouTube playlist.
