Required COVID-19 testing through Feb. 4

Regardless of vaccination status, all students and employees coming to campus in any capacity for the spring semester must provide proof of a viral COVID‑19 test by Feb. 4, 2022. Tests taken before Jan. 3 will not be accepted. Contact covidtesting@uta.edu with questions.
UTA has a number of free on-campus testing options, and results will automatically be reported to the University. Results from off-campus testing sites also will be accepted, though you will not be reimbursed for costs and will need to upload results to the COVID Self-Report portal in MyMav.
If you have trouble finding or using the portal, contact the OIT Help Desk.
