As requested by the Government, ÃÛÌÒAV is offering for students who have face-to-face teaching or are travelling to campus.
National guidelines currently state that you should not travel to ÃÛÌÒAV unless necessary. At ÃÛÌÒAV, areas of campus are open to support you with essential study and some Health and Social Science students will continue to have face-to-face teaching at this time. If you are on a programme where face-to-face teaching is allowed, don't forget to get tested to minimise the risk of infecting your friends, housemates, other students and staff. You can find out more and book your on-campus tests online.
