Coming to Campus
Prepare before you come to campus: South Central College has created a Preparedness Plan. All students, employees and visitors are asked to review the plan and complete a COVID-19 Permission to be on Campus Form before coming back to campus for the first time.
Complete a Self-Assessment each day you come to campus: Each day that you plan to be on campus for more than 15 minutes, you will need to complete a short health assessment using our web-based COVID-19 Screening Tool before entering the building. This applies to all individuals on campus whether it be for class, work, or another purpose per state policy. For more details, see the following video tutorial and Frequently Asked Questions.
Protect yourself and others while on campus: When you arrive on campus, you will also be provided with a mask to wear and six-foot social distancing will be implemented in all areas with the exception of private offices and workspaces where six-foot social distancing is possible.
Consider calling first for services: If you wish to visit South Central College for purposes other than taking an in-person class or utilizing the open computer lab, please call before coming on campus.
