University Park students who are not vaccinated and have recently traveled, interacted with individuals outside of their pods or believe they may have been exposed to COVID-19 are urged to take advantage of Penn State's free, on-demand coronavirus testing.
Penn State students living in on-campus residence halls who remain unvaccinated or do not submit their vaccination status to the University will be required to test for COVID-19 weekly throughout the semester or until they share with the University that they have been vaccinated. Learn more on the Testing and Support page.
Required testing for students living in residence halls
On campuses that have more than 25 students living in residence halls, students living on campus who are not fully vaccinated will be required to complete a COVID-19 test weekly starting after summer session begins and continuing through the summer. These students will receive a weekly reminder to complete the test at a designated site on their campus. More information is forthcoming on this test protocol for fully vaccinated students who have provided vaccination status to the University.
