Dear LGS Student,

 

Emory University’s Student Health Services (SHS) has produced safety kits for students who have completed COVID-19 testing as part of the onboarding clearance process for the fall term. The safety kits include masks, thermometers, hand sanitizer, and other items that will be useful in our efforts to keep our campus community safe. 

 

Since you participated in early COVID-19 test in July, you do not need to test again. However, you may still pick up a welcome kit at the Emory Conference Center and Hotel testing location. SHS has designated the dates and times below for students who have completed testing to pick up their safety kits. ECCH is part of Emory University and masks are required. Please wear your masks. 

 

• August 4-12
• 9 AM-7 PM
• Emory Conference Center Hotel (South wing)
• 1615 Clifton Rd, Atlanta, GA 30329
   
• August 13-17
• 8 AM-8 PM
• Emory Conference Center Hotel (South wing)
• 1615 Clifton Rd, Atlanta, GA 30329
   

If arriving in personal transportation, please park in the South Parking Deck. Parking is free.

 

SHS recommends that students plan pick up kits before the 13th, since the period after that will be very busy with new students arriving for testing.  

 

In case you have decided to be tested again through SHS, you will receive your kit after your testing is completed. 

 

For questions, please refer to Emory Forward’s website for additional information on the University’s requirements for students returning to campus.

 

Thank you and continue to stay safe.
