Changes to LMU COVID Testing Take Effect March 3
Starting, Friday, March 3, the university will shift to exclusively at-home rapid antigen testing, which will continue to be offered free of charge to all community members. The current COVID Testing Center will close on both the Westchester and LLS campuses at 4 p.m. on Friday, March 3.
At the Westchester campus, at-home testing kits will be available for pickup as follows:
- Monday – Friday, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.: Dean of Students office (Malone 301) for students and Human Resources (University Hall 1900) for staff and faculty.
- After hours, including weekends and holidays: Campus Safety Services (Foley Annex) for students, staff, and faculty.
At LLS, at-home testing kits will be available for pickup as follows:
- Monday – Friday, 8 a.m. – 5 p.m.: Office of Student Affairs and Information Center.
- After hours, including weekends and holidays: Public Safety office in the parking structure.
This change is due to declining demand and in alignment with the end of California’s COVID-19 state of emergency.
There is no need to call ahead to pick up a rapid antigen test – simply walk in and one will be provided to you. Should you test positive, please report your case to the COVID Support Team at 310.568.6868 or COVIDSupportTeam@lmu.edu for personalized support and contact tracing.
