COVID Mitigation Efforts Continuing

Masks continue to be available at the Student Involvement Office and Office of Public Safety.
COVID immunizations, including booster doses, are available by appointment at Student Health Services by calling 701.777.4500.
Home test kits are available around campus and in the Grand Forks community.
PCR testing will continue to be available to students at Student Health Services.
Grand Forks Public Health will continue to test at the Fritz Pollard Athletic Center with free rapid and PCR testing.
UND's COVID Hotline will be available until June 30, 2022 at UND.covid19hotline@UND.edu.

Mask Policy

Masks are recommended but not required on UND's campus.

Because we still have high risk individuals within our campus community, there are a few exceptions to this change:

Masks are required at Student Health Services and COVID-19 testing sites.
Programs with clinical requirements that place students or faculty members in contact with vulnerable patients may adopt additional mask requirements.

Because UND’s mitigation and mask policy has and will continue to be informed by local pandemic conditions, there may be changes to the policy in the future.

Travel

If you have traveled, please test for COVID 3-5 days after you travel, regardless of vaccination status. Isolate and test sooner if you develop symptoms.

Please refer to the International Travel Safety site for official UND policy, guidelines, and UND-affiliated travel registration. Questions regarding international travel should be directed to Angie Carpenter.
