Testing and Screening
All faculty, staff and student employees are now eligible to schedule a no-cost asymptomatic COVID-19 test to help improve the health and safety of our campus community. All those returning to on-campus work and study are required to complete a daily symptom screening; those who report symptoms will be offered a test promptly. Periodic risk-based asymptomatic testing for all students, faculty and staff on campus will begin in the fall. As we continue to offer more testing, we know there will inevitably be positive cases. Our role is to reduce, mitigate and care for those impacted.
Town Halls
In an effort to provide regular updates and answer your questions about the fall plan, UC San Diego will host monthly town halls about the Return to Learn program and campus operations during the COVID-19 pandemic. If you are not able to catch the live event, all of the webinars are archived on our Town Hall page.
