Stay Healthy for Spring 2021

The health and safety of our UNT community is our top priority. Please keep in mind the CDC-recommended public health strategies, including wearing your face mask, staying socially distanced, and avoiding nonessential indoor spaces and crowded outdoor venues, among others. Our guidelines are not changing at this time, and UNT does expect students, faculty and staff to continue to comply with our safety measures, so that we can hold our face-to-face classes and other events safely.

Get Vaccinated

UNT began vaccine clinics for those in our UNT community who registered through the COVID-19 vaccine registration site. Registrants will be contacted directly when their appointment is scheduled. The portal has been updated to reflect the new criteria announced by the State of Texas March 23, allowing all adults to receive the COVID-19 vaccine beginning March 29. The UNT portal will remain open indefinitely with no limits on registrants, and additional vaccination clinics will be scheduled as we continue to receive allocations from the state.

Get Tested

All faculty, staff and students are strongly encouraged to get a COVID-19 test and to self-monitor for 14 days before coming to campus. Use the self-monitoring form as a guide. COVID-19 testing is provided to UNT community members by:

The testing is available from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday - Friday, 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Saturday and 1 to 7 p.m. Sunday in the University Union, Room 381, and 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday – Friday in the Gateway Center, Room 52.

Travel

The CDC requires all air travelers to provide proof of a negative COVID-19 test or recovery from COVID-19 before boarding flights to the U.S. from any international location. In addition, all faculty, staff or students will be asked to quarantine off campus for 10 days. International students who will be living on campus will be provided with an on-campus quarantine room.

• To report your international travel to the COVID hotline, call 844-366-5892 or email at COVID@unt.edu for instructions on their quarantine period or on-campus quarantine housing.

Please understand that UNT’s response to the COVID-19 global health crisis continues to evolve, so our policies and plans are subject to change when necessary as more information becomes available. As a result, please plan to check this site frequently for updates.
