COVID-19 March 2022 Update

Following the latest changes to government measures, the University of Exeter has updated their COVID-19 guidance to all students. The University will take a phased and gradual approach to the removal of COVID-19 measures on campus, allowing staff and students to take their time to adjust to the changes. This approach will also allow the University to remain flexible should infection rates increase and restrictions be reintroduced.

You can view the key changes below:

  • From Friday 1 April, the Government will end the free testing programme for most people. Tests will become available commercially available and free tests will only continue to be available for those who are vulnerable or older.
  • From Thursday 24 February, there will be no requirement to self-isolate if you have a confirmed infection, but anyone who tests positive is advised to stay at home and avoid contact with other people for five full days.
  • From Thursday 24 February, NHS Test and Trace will no longer be contacting those with a confirmed infection, or their close contacts.
  • From Thursday 24 February, close contacts will no longer be recommended to test for seven days and those who are not vaccinated will not be required to self-isolate.
  • We continue to expect everyone to wear face coverings in shared indoor spaces that are crowded and enclosed and where you may meet people you do not usually meet.
  • Measures will remain in place on our campuses until further notice and we expect all colleagues and students to continue to follow these.
  • Our on-campus vaccination clinics will continue – dates will be available on our website
