Schedule your weekly Asymptomatic COVID-19 test here!

We would like to remind our community that the University of Utah is now offering free asymptomatic COVID-19 testing for all UU researchers, staff, faculty, and students. Testing is fast and easy and results are returned by email within 24 hours. The Office of the Vice President for Research strongly encourages all researchers and research/VPR staff who visit campus to be tested weekly. Testing is conveniently available by appointment at two accessible locations - Fort Douglas Officer Club and the Olpin Student Union Building.

BEFORE YOUR APPOINTMENT :

1) Do not eat or drink within 30 minutes of getting tested 

2) Bring your UID card. 

For general information about the testing process, please visit the COVID-19 testing website or contact Campus COVID-19 Testing.

If you have been exposed to a known positive or if you are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms, please do not come to the asymptomatic testing location. Instead, call 801-587-0712 to schedule a test at an appropriate location. In the case of exposure, remember to wait 5 days from the exposure before getting tested.

Please Help Us Keep U Healthy!
Asymptomatic testing is conducted weekly throughout the semester as a way to identify COVID-19 in people who are not showing any symptoms of the disease. Because you might contract the virus and transmit it to others before you ever experience symptoms, weekly asymptomatic testing may identify that you are positive and need to isolate, thus helping prevent the spread of the virus.
