All faculty, staff, and students returning to campus in the fall will be tested once weekly as part of a pooled PCR testing program with the Broad Institute. Whether you are new to the College’s COVID-19 testing program or will be testing for the first time, you will need to do the following:
Vendors and contractors brought in by academic and administrative departments or by Student Life in conjunction with student organizations.All vendors and contractors coming to campus who will be entering campus buildings and interacting with members of our community must complete thisvisitor registration form,ks them to verify their vaccination status (including booster) and agree to adhere to our masking policy. The department arranging for the vendor is responsible for notifying them of this requirement.
Contractors hired by the Facilities Department, including regular contractors, tradespeople who provide emergency and other building-related services, and contractors working on active construction projects, follow a different process. The Facilities Department reviews and monitors health and safety protocols for these facilities contractors, and communicates the College’s requirements. Contractors are required to wear masks indoors except in defined construction zones with limited community contact. They should reach out to their Facilities contact with any questions.
If you are on campus, we ask that you notify the College if you have been or plan to be tested for COVID-19 for symptom-related reasons. In these cases, we will support and work with you to consider whether you have had significant contact with people who might need to be quarantined while you await test results. There are two reporting forms available through the Toolbox:
Complete thereport positive testform if you have received a positive test result outside of Broad testing.
Complete theexposure notification form(also found in theDocumentation Toolboxin MyWellesley) if any of the scenarios below apply to you:
