All students enrolled in on-campus classes.

Students will be tested once per week, beginning the week of September 13, 2021, for the duration of the fall semester.

The testing site is located in the Haugh Performing Arts Center lobby. The HPAC is located on the west end of campus, with the HPAC lobby facing the Student Services Building. Here is a campus map with building location directory, if needed.

The testing site is open the following weekdays:

Monday: 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Tuesday: 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Wednesday: 7 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Thursday: 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Friday: Closed

Students in kinesiology/athletics will continue to be tested in accordance with the testing program currently in place for the those students.

The test is a rapid test called BinaxNOW from Abbott.

​The test is provided at no cost to the student.

The test is designed to be a self-test with results in approximately 15 minutes. College staff will be available to assist the student with the test. All the student needs to do is use the provided nasal swab to gently swab the inside of each nostril.

Upon arrival, the student will be asked to use the CitrusMobile app to scan a QR Code. This is the same process students have been using to enter buildings.

Allow at least 30 minutes to complete the testing.

Students will then be given the test, and a staff member will provide assistance.

After completing the test, the student will be asked to wait 15 minutes, or slightly longer, to receive their test results.

If the test is negative, the student will be provided with a note indicating the testing date and the result.

If the test is positive, the student will receive information concerning the next steps. If the student tests positive, they will not be permitted to remain on campus and may not attend on-campus classes for a period of, at least, 10 days unless a medical provider informs the college the reading was a false positive.

The college's Student Health Center will retain the testing information. It will only be shared with college leadership, as may be necessary to ensure compliance with COVID-19 protocols.

Students are urged to make time in their schedules to be tested during the following weekdays and times.

Monday: 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Tuesday: 7 a.m. to 1 p.m. and 3 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Wednesday: 7 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Thursday: 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.
Friday: Closed

If a student absolutely cannot make the designated testing times (for example, due to a work schedule conflict), contact the Student Health Center at shc@citruscollege.edu for more information.

For the individual student's safety and the safety of the campus community, it is extremely important the student get tested once per week, as required.

If the student does not get tested, they will not be permitted to attend in-person classes. If, for whatever reason, the student does not get tested during the week, send an email to shc@citruscollege.edu for further guidance.
