Spring Safety Measures
We know that many of our Knights depend on the on-campus experience. That’s why we’re finding ways to offer more in-person classes and activities this spring. And with no spread of the virus traced back to classrooms in Fall 2020, we must continue all of our efforts to protect each other.
We encourage you to get tested and self-quarantine before you return to UCF after the holiday break to ensure you do not bring the virus back to campus with you. All UCF Housing residents will be required to complete a COVID-19 test during spring move-in.

We’re so proud of the hard work and resilience that all Knights have shown in protecting our kingdom. Let’s each continue to Armor Up by wearing face coverings, keeping physical distance and screening your symptoms daily with the COVID Self-Checker.
If you or someone you know tests positive for COVID-19:
- Stay home and don’t come to campus
- Avoid contact with others
- Call the UCF COVID Line at 407-823-2509
- Continue home isolation until you’ve consulted with your healthcare provider about returning to campus

*Following additional data analysis, the Florida Department of Health in Orange County has informed UCF of 336 student cases that were reported to the Health Department between August and November. UCF has determined that these cases were not previously self-reported, and we are updating our dashboard to ensure accurate and transparent reporting. Some of the cases involve positive tests from students from counties throughout Florida that were reported to Orange County. Others involved tests done in Orange County — but not at UCF — and the individuals were later identified as students.
