TWU offers COVID-19 testing options

Texas Woman’s will offer several COVID-19 testing options for faculty, staff, and students at the start of the spring semester.

Dallas and Houston

Rapid testing kits will be available on Dallas and Houston campuses within the next two weeks. Each kit contains two tests and may be picked up in person at the Student Life offices. A notice will be sent out when kits are available. To pick up a kit, be prepared to show a valid TWU ID and complete a log sheet. Kits will be limited to one box per person per day. If you feel you will be unable to secure a test from a local provider in your area due to shortages, you may pick up a COVID-19 test before you exhibit symptoms. Please do not come to campus if you feel ill or are exhibiting symptoms.

If your test returns a positive result, complete TWU’s COVID-19 Reporting Form for contact tracing purposes and follow quarantine protocols.  

Denton

Beginning Tuesday, Jan. 18, COVID-19 vaccinations will be available at Brackenridge Hall, Garden Room from 10 a.m. until 3 p.m., Tuesday through Thursday. Testing will continue at Brackenridge Hall through the end of the month while testing supplies last, although days and hours may vary based on demand.

Drive-through testing will be available in the Lowry Woods parking lot beginning the week of Jan. 17. Dates and times will be posted on TWU’s coronavirus website

If at any time you receive a positive result, complete TWU’s COVID-19 Reporting Form for contact tracing purposes and follow quarantine protocols.

Be mindful of your health, self-screen, and get tested if you are experiencing symptoms or if you have been exposed to COVID-19 within the past three to five days.

Members of the TWU community are encouraged to get the vaccine booster if eligible, as this is particularly important with the current Omicron variant.

TWU strongly recommends wearing masks indoors when around others.
