UCF Housing – Summer Resident Update

June 12, 2020

You may have already noticed additional health and well-being measures put into place in your community. We wanted to heighten your awareness of these considerations.

  • Students are required to wear facial coverings in ALL common areas and shared spaces. Students will receive a reusable facial covering in their welcome back bag. Guest visitation has been canceled in all communities for the summer. Hand sanitizing stations have been added to public locations and barriers have been installed at community front desks.
  • Signage has been added throughout the buildings reminding residents to wash their hands, practice six foot physical distancing and limit the number of residents in specific areas.
  • All common areas will continue to be cleaned on a regular basis.

Information on how to stay healthy, including videos with information on COVID-19 symptoms and how to stop the spread of germs, are available at: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/prevent-getting-sick/prevention.html
