Updates & Messages


To keep our community safe and supported this semester, we will be providing weekly updates on COVID-19-related news, resources, announcements, and more. 

Updated March. 10, 2022

What's New


COVID Testing at CU Denver

We encourage our community members to continue to get tested, especially if you are experiencing symptoms or have been exposed to someone who tests positive for COVID-19.

You can schedule same-day appointments at the 5th Street Garage. Results are typically available within 36 hours. Other sites for testing are available from your healthcare provider and COVIDCheckColorado. At-home tests are available through the federal government’s site at COVIDtests.gov.

KN95 Masks Available

To help prevent the transmission of COVID, CU Denver is providing KN95 masks—one of the most effective tools available. Contact your Dean’s office for information on location and availability. All other employees can pick up masks at Lynx Central in Student Commons. Leaders of offices in Lawrence Street Center, 1380 Lawrence St., may contact Ali Medina to request masks for their units.
