Please check your student email for further instructions after submission. We do not inform your instructors of your COVID status, but we will send you an isolation timeline that you can forward to your professors.  It is your responsibility to contact your professors and ask for accommodations. 

Please do NOT come to the campus with COVID or COVID-like symptoms. Even if you test negative for COVID, there are many other contagious viruses such as RSV and Influenza circulating. It is important to get tested and visit a healthcare provider for proper treatment and illness documentation.  

ISOLATION INSTRUCTIONS:

If you test positive for COVID-19, report using the link above, then you may need to isolate for up to 10 days after your positive test or symptoms start date. 

You may end isolation after 5 days if you meet the following criteria:  

  1. Test negative on day 5 (day 0 is the date of the positive test/symptoms) or later  
  2. And you have no fever without the use of fever-reducing medication  
  3. And your symptoms are improving.  
  4. You will need to send us a picture of your negative Antigen test taken at least 5 days after the date of your positive test/ symptoms. (Please provide your picture ID and the test date with your result) At home COVID antigen tests are acceptable for clearance. 
  5. If you choose not to test on day 5 or later, you may safely return to campus after 10 days only if your COVID-19 symptoms have improved and you are free of fever without the use of fever-reducing medication at least 24 hours before your isolation end date. Your isolation is based on your test results and your symptoms. If you are still experiencing symptoms, notify the Student Health Center at 714-714-7705. Please contact us if you have been on campus 48 hours prior to testing positive.

Prevention is the best strategy to reduce your risk of viral infection.

  • Wash your hands often with soap and water for at least 20 seconds, especially after you have been in a public place. Use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer with at least 60% alcohol if soap and water are unavailable.
  • Avoid close contact with people who are sick or people outside of your home - keep at least a 6-foot distance. Remember that some people without symptoms can spread the virus. 
  • Wear a well fitting mask in poorly ventilated spaces and crowds.
  • Disinfect commonly touched surfaces such as counters, tables, keyboards, and doorknobs.
  • Avoid sharing drinks, eating utensils, sports equipment, towels and bedding.
  • Keep healthy by eating a balanced diet, drinking water, getting enough sleep, and managing stress.
  • Obtain a preventative vaccine such as the COVID-19 vaccine or flu shot if available.

  • Avoid close contact such as kissing, hugging, and sharing cups or eating utensils with people who are sick, and when you are sick.
  • Cover your coughs and sneezes with a tissue or your upper shirt sleeve, not your hands.
  • Mask when indoors or large group settings.
  • Wash your hands frequently, especially before and after eating and using the bathroom.
  • Get your flu shot and COVID-19 vaccines to prevent complications from these viral illnesses.
