UTEP student COVID-19 testing is an important part of our strategy to control the spread of the virus that causes COVID-19 as we transition to face-to-face classes. The testing program is voluntary, and it allows current UTEP students to identify if they have contracted the virus even if they are not experiencing symptoms. If a student tests positive, they will be asked to return home to avoid spreading the virus to others. Testing is free and available to all UTEP students who are currently enrolled. No appointments are necessary.
