Health & Wellness Reports of COVID-19 Hold Steady
Reminders About Vaccine Administration All adults over the age of 16 in Georgia are now eligible for COVID-19 vaccination. The University Health Center (UHC) is issuing invitations for appointments, and you will be contacted via email when it is your turn to be vaccinated. Vaccines will be given by appointment only, and we ask that you remain patient. If you have already received your vaccine, you do not need to notify the UHC. To learn more details about vaccines and UGA’s process for administering them, visit the UHC’s FAQs. Surveillance Testing Continues at Legion Field Free asymptomatic-only testing is available for all UGA community members at Legion Field. You may schedule an appointment or walk in Monday-Friday 9 a.m.-3:30 p.m. The Legion Field site testing schedule will follow the University of Georgia calendar for closure. Remember to bring your UGA ID.

Learning on Campus Reminder: Instructional Break Thursday, April 8 Thursday, April 8 will be an instructional break for students. Based on recommendations from the Educational Affairs Committee, “No mandatory assignments shall be scheduled for completion during these instructional break days, either for course work or extra-curricular or co-curricular activities. It is strongly recommended that assignments and examinations not be scheduled for the day after the instructional break days.”
Living on Campus Reminder: After Hours Parking Update Effective April 1, high-impact parking areas will be managed after regular business hours, expanding safety, visibility and customer service measures into the evenings and weekends. These lots include: N02, N03, N04, W01, W16, Herty Drive areas and One Press Place.
UGA students, faculty and staff will be able to continue parking in these areas after-hours for free as long as their vehicle information has been added to the Parking Account Management System. UGA students, faculty and staff who do not have a UGA parking permit can pre-register their vehicle in the Parking Account Management System to avoid citations. Individuals not affiliated with UGA will need to use ParkMobile or pay stations to pay for parking.
After-hours enforcement will occur Monday-Friday from 6:00 p.m.-12:00 a.m. and Saturday-Sunday from 10:00-12:00 a.m. Click here for more information.
