Test kits are available on campus in the following locations: Student Health Services (SHS), Human Resources (HR), and Campus Connection. We resupply frequently.
We no longer track COVID-19 cases on campus or provide vaccination, but vaccines are available through your healthcare provider, a variety of pharmacies, and the Utah County Health Department.
