COVID-19 Guidance for Positive Cases

​​​Updated August 26, 2022 


Tested positive for COVID-19

If you have recently tested positive for COVID, visit the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention's (CDC) website for the most up-to-date instructions on quarantining, isolation and safety measures. Call your healthcare provider to discuss questions regarding symptoms and possible treatment options and call 911 if you are experiencing a medical emergency.

For students who live on-campus, please visit DePaul's Housing website for guidance.

As with other illnesses, students should reach out to their instructors directly regarding class attendance or coursework. Employees should report to their managers regarding necessary time off.

Experiencing  COVID-19 symptoms 
If you are experiencing COVID-related symptoms, test when you feel sick and stay home to avoid exposing others if you are sick. For faculty, staff and students who do not have access to testing, rapid tests are available and visit DePaul's COVID-19 Testing web page for information on pick up locations. Call your healthcare provider to discuss questions regarding symptoms and call 911 if you are experiencing a medical emergency. 

Questions
