The University is providing each full-time undergraduate and graduate student who is part of the Student Health Program with a COVID self-test kit to use when they wish. Each kit comes with two tests.
If a student takes the test over the course of the semester and has a positive result, they should use Dr. Chat Bot to report their result to University Health Service (UHS).
If a student is picking up a test kit in person, they should bring their UR ID.
The distribution plan is as follows:
Arts, Sciences, and Engineering (Undergraduate): test kits for students with a CMC box will be placed in their mailboxes in the River Campus Mail Center; for students who do not have a CMC box, test kits can be picked up at the Common Connection in Wilson Commons.
