COVID-19 Compliance Support Request
Compliance for Students Living in University-Owned Residence Halls and Chapter Houses
All students living in the university-owned residence halls and fraternity/sorority chapter houses must be up-to-date on vaccines (i.e., a completed vaccine regimen plus booster dose with 14 days of becoming eligible) or have an approved religious or medical exemption before arriving on campus for their move-in appointment.
Spring 2022 Semester
- You must test within 24-48 hours before you return to your residence hall.
- For this test, you are not required to upload your test results. This testing protocol is part of our collective responsibility to help minimize infection within our community.
- If you test positive, you must postpone your travel to campus and follow all applicable CDC, state, county and campus guidance for isolation and testing, which includes isolating for a minimum of 5 full days. A negative rapid antigen test at the beginning of day 6 is required prior to ending isolation and returning to campus.

Students living in an on-campus fraternity or sorority house should ensure their vaccination status is green and they are cleared to come to campus at return.umd.edu under "Check My Status."
