Important January return-to-campus health information
As finals week comes to an end, we want to remind you of ways to stay healthy as you travel home for the winter break. Before you return to campus in January, we encourage you to take a COVID test within 72 hours before arriving here, as we have typically seen surges of COVID after breaks. If you are actively ill (e.g., flu, COVID, RSV, etc.), do not return to campus in January, but remain home until your symptoms are improved and you have not had a fever (without using fever-reducing medications) for 24 hours; for gastrointestinal illnesses such as noroviruses, you can be contagious for up to two days after your symptoms have resolved, so remain away until then.
