UIS requires saliva-based COVID-19 testing for on-campus students, faculty and staff
University of Illinois Springfield students, faculty and staff living, working or taking classes on-campus are required to participate in free saliva-based COVID-19 testing once a week during Fall Semester 2020.
The saliva-based Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) test was developed by the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. The test can detect the virus in people who are asymptomatic and/or individuals early in the course of disease.
Test results are expected within the same day and should not exceed 48 hours, excluding weekends and holidays.
