Isolation Requirements for Students:  If you test positive for COVID-19:

  • Stay home and notify your instructor
  • You can go back to your normal activities when, for at least 24-hours, both are true:
    • Your symptoms are getting better overall, and
    • You have not had a fever (and are not using fever-reducing medication).
  • When you go back to your normal activities, take added precautions over the next 5 days, such as taking additional steps for cleaner air, hygiene, masks, physical distancing, and/or testing when you will be around other people indoors.  This is especially important to protect people with factors that increase their risk of severe illness from respiratory viruses.
    • Keep in mind that you may still be able to spread the virus that made you sick, even if you are feeling better.  You are likely to be less contagious at this time, depending on factors like how long you were sick or how sick you were.
    • If you develop a fever or you start to feel worse after you have gone back to normal activities, stay home and away from others again until, for at least 24-hours, both are true: Your symptoms are improving overall, and you have not had a fever (and are not using fever-reducing medication).  Then take added precaution for the next 5 days.
