Current Health and Safety Protocols
For the spring 2023 semester, USG will operate with the following health and safety protocols in effect:
- All students, faculty and staff must follow their home campus COVID-19 vaccination requirements. USG staff follow the University of Maryland, College Park requirements. Please see the ‘Partner Universities Policies and Requirements’ section below for details.
- Masks are not required indoors but are reccomended.
- If you are experiencing any symptoms that may be consistent with COVID-19, please do not come to campus.
- See below for more detailed Health and Safety Guidelines and visit our COVID-19 Frequently Asked Questions page.
Students, faculty and staff do not need to be tested regularly, regardless of vaccination status, but are strongly encouraged to take a rapid antigen COVID-19 test within 24 hours before returning to campus for the spring semester.
COVID-19 Testing
Rapid antigen test kits are available for USG community members free of charge at the IT Service Desk on the second floor of the Clifford and Camille Kendall Academic Center (Building III). You can also find information about testing locations in Montgomery County here.
