Current Status: Orange Stage
Spring & Summer 2021
Just as we did for the fall, our plans for the spring semester involve an approach that maintains the University’s commitment to providing a top-quality, residential, educational opportunity while also doing all we can to mitigate the risk of COVID-19 infection within our campus community.
How to Report a Potential COVID-19 Case
- Students (other than part-time MBA and SPCS) should contact the Student Health Center at 804-289-8064.
- MBA and SPCS students should call their healthcare provider and notify their dean's office.
- Faculty and staff should contact the HR COVID Care Coordinator at hr-health-screens@richmond.edu or 804-289-8811.
All off-campus COVID-19 tests and results (regardless of outcome) should be reported to the University.
COVID-19 Support Center
UR is staffing a COVID-19 Support Center during business hours. This team is trained to answer general questions about the University’s COVID-19 response planning and procedures. The fastest way to reach someone in the call center is by emailing covid19support@richmond.edu.
