Book a free COVID-19 test
By taking a test when you don’t have symptoms, you will help play your part in maintaining a safe campus for everyone.
All students and staff should get tested before coming on to campus for any reason and then arrange regular testing twice a week or as often as possible for as long as you are on campus. In the first instance, you should arrange two tests no less than three days and no more than seven days apart.

Offering you a safe campus experience
The University is planning to provide an authentic experience on campus that includes face-to- face teaching starting in September 2021.
We are optimistic that by September the roll- out of the vaccination programme will have been successful allowing students to enjoy and benefit from the wide range of activities and facilities on campus across our libraries, student spaces, cafes, sports centres and social hubs.
Given the changing nature of the pandemic, these commitments are subject to the guidelines that may be in place at the time. For example, if restrictions are increased/eased in the future then facilities and services may not be delivered as described.
