Testing and Vaccination Information

The best defense against COVID-19 is being tested regularly and getting vaccinated. Help us minimize the risk and spread of COVID-19!

COVID-19 Testing Schedule

Testing is available to any NDSCS community member (faculty, staff, student) on a regular basis. All employees and students are encouraged to be tested frequently. Frequent testing helps to minimize the risk and spread of COVID-19 by identifying positive cases early, increasing the likelihood of tracing and isolating. If you have NOT been tested by the NDDoH, please pre-register at testreg.nd.gov. If you HAVE been tested by the NDDoH, please come and be tested again, but there is no need to register again.
