Important COVID-19 Information for SU Students
Thursday September 9, 2021
Dear SU Students,
As Salisbury University continues its COVID-19 precautions, please note the following:
- Beginning Monday, September 13, COVID-19 take-home tests for fully vaccinated, asymptomatic students will be available from Campus Health.
- Take-home tests may be picked up 9:30 a.m.-noon and 1-2:30 p.m. Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays in the Great Hall of Holloway Hall. No appointment is necessary.
- Take-home testing requires taking two tests at least 36 hours apart.
- Students will not need to return take-home tests or report their results unless receiving a positive. Those receiving a positive result should email CampusHealth@salisbury.edu and await instructions.
- This testing is optional for fully vaccinated, asymptomatic students. The number of tests available per student during the semester will be limited.
- Students who are informed of COVID-19 exposure via SU contact tracing will be directed to take a take-home test. This testing is not optional for those individuals.
- Students receiving a positive result from any COVID-19 test or exposure from a COVID-19-positive individual are subject to isolation and/or quarantine. More information is available on the SU COVID-19 webpage.
- To maintain campus access, SU students who have received at least one dose of the COVID-19 vaccine but are not fully vaccinated (two shots of a two-dose vaccine or one shot of the single-dose vaccine, plus 14 days) must continue to receive an SU-administered COVID-19 test, with a negative result, every Tuesday and Thursday until fully vaccinated.
- Students who miss a required test will lose campus access until a make-up test is taken and a negative result on file. Visit the SU COVID-19 webpage for information on make-up testing options.
- SU has partnered with TimelyMD to offer free remote health and mental health assistance for students, including those affected by COVID-19. Please download the TimelyMD app and sign up today.
Please stay safe, and thank you for continuing to do your part to #ProtectTheFlock.
