Have you been vaccinated for COVID-19?
Students who have been vaccinated for COVID-19 should upload proof of vaccination to their Student Health Portal. This will allow Wellness Center staff to verify that you are exempt from quarantine if you are identified as a close contact of someone who tests positive for COVID-19.
In order to qualify for exemption, students must meet the following criteria, defined by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC):
- Are fully vaccinated (i.e., ≥ two weeks following receipt of the second dose in a two-dose series, or ≥ two weeks following receipt of one dose of a single-dose vaccine)
- Are within three months following receipt of the last dose in the series
- Have remained asymptomatic since the current COVID-19 exposure
Have you had a positive COVID-19 test in the past 90 days?
In addition, students who have tested positive for COVID-19 in the previous 90 days and have not already provided that information to the Wellness Center should upload documentation of their positive test to their Student Health Portal. Documentation must include: student name, date of test, and test result. Students who have had a positive test within the past 90 days will be exempt from weekly surveillance testing.
