Dear KCU Campus Community,
Thank you for your cooperation during our most recent round of random surveillance testing for COVID. Surveillance testing is a proven strategy in supporting the health and well-being of our campus community, and because of your participation we were able to complete nearly 1,400 tests over the last six weeks.
Beginning Tuesday, October 26, we will enter the next round of campus surveillance testing. This cycle of testing will take place throughout the remainder of this semester as a key component of our continued efforts to monitor the prevalence of COVID and limit its spread.
An added offering during this phase of testing is the ability for anyone to complete a walk-in test during any of the scheduled testing events, regardless of being selected as a participant in that week’s testing pool. Surveillance testing is free and usually takes less than five minutes.
All on-campus students and all full-time faculty and staff can expect to be randomly selected for testing approximately every other month as a part of this mitigation effort.
Please note that surveillance testing is only for asymptomatic individuals. If you are experiencing symptoms of COVID-19, you should continue to contact Score 1 for Health at 1-877-425-0251 to report your symptoms and receive instructions.
The weekly testing events for each campus will take place as follows:
