COVID Student FAQs

Q. What time is the Student Town Hall tonight and how do I join? 

A. You can join the forum this evening, Wednesday, November 18, via this link from 7-8 p.m. 

Q. Is there special testing required before leaving campus for break or when I return? 

A. All students should get tested before the break and upon their return. Off-campus students can use the surge testing site. Off-campus students who are experiencing COVID-19 symptoms, should contact Student Health Services during normal business hours.  

For residence hall students who leave campus during the Fall (November) Break and plan to return to campus for the remainder of the semester, the UW System has mandated enhanced testing protocols, including: 

  • One test prior to leaving campus that must take place between November 16-20 
  • Two tests within the week after you return, between November 29-December 4 
  • Weekly testing through December 22 
  • Students who plan to stay on campus during Fall (November) Break (November 25-29) must take an additional test on either Monday, November 23 or Tuesday, November 24 
  • Residence hall students should sign up for testing in the Johnson Fieldhouse on their assigned day via the link received in their e-mail from University Housing.  
  • Residence hall students who have questions about their testing protocols should contact University Housing at housing@uwstout.edu, or call 715-232-1121.  

Q. I’m headed to my family’s home over break. What should I do to help keep them safe? 

A. The CDC has advised against gathering with people outside of your household. However, there are situations, such as students returning home, where this might not be possible. Therefore, we have created a resource site, based on CDC recommendations, to provide you with guidance on how to reduce the spread of the virus.
