COVID Weekly Testing Guidelines Update

Based on recent University guidelines, weekly COVID testing is no longer required, if you are fully vaccinated against the virus. Proof of vaccination must be uploaded to the University COVID-19 Vaccination Portal page to be exempt from weekly testing. RU Occupational Health will review these records to ensure that individuals remain compliant with University guidelines.

If you are fully vaccinated and have updated your records online, please let the Facilities Team know so that they can collect any unclaimed COVID-19 test kits to return to the University COVID-19 Task Force and remove you from the testing protocol.

If you are not fully vaccinated yet or choose not to get the COVID-19 vaccination, but plan to be on campus on a regular basis, you still must submit weekly COVID-19 tests.

Event and Activity Certification System

In an email from Tony Calcado, all events, planned activities, conferences, and non-credit academic programs hosted on University property organized for ten (10) or more people through August 31st require certification through the University Event and Activity Certification System (EACS). This process applies to on-campus events held during the Summer and Fall semester. Standard room reservation procedures will follow after an event has been confirmed through the EACS system. If you have any additional questions or concerns about this new process, please contact RBS Facilities at RBS-Facilities@business.rutgers.edu.
