Testing positive
What if I test positive?
If you test positive for COVID-19, do not come to campus. You must isolate off campus for at least five days and will need to be cleared by Health Services before returning to campus. A mask will be required for days 6-10 and you may need to isolate during sleeping hours if you have a roommate. Alternate on-campus housing will be provided during this time if needed.
For resident students: please remain in your dorm and contact Health Services during business hours at 845-569-3152. If it’s after hours, contact Security at 845-569-3200.
Submitting a positive test result
-
Log in. If needed, create your account to do so. Enter your information as requested.
-
Once logged in, follow directions as prompted. Proof includes official results from a rapid or PCR test, a photo of a home test with this attestation form, or a note from your physician.
Health Services will contact you with your next steps.
Upon being cleared by Health Services, students may return to campus if their symptoms are mostly resolved: no persistent cough, nasal discharge, or sore throat, and no fever for 24 hours without the use of fever-reducing medications.
Any student needing to isolate because they were COVID-19 positive needs to be cleared by Health Services in order to return to campus. Call 845-569-3152.
