Planning to move into on-campus housing at USC? You'll need a COVID-19 test first

USC is requiring everyone who returns to campus to get tested for COVID-19.

COLUMBIA, S.C. — Anyone planning to move into on-campus housing at the University of South Carolina will have to make sure they have a COVID-19 test. 

From the USC's website: 

For the safety of all of our students, those moving into on-campus housing (This includes all on-campus housing including 650 Lincoln, Younion, Green Crossing, Park Place, and Greek Village) must show proof of COVID-19 testing and clearance from Student Health Services prior to move-in. 

The university recommends that students upload their test so the university has it before anyone moves in.

What happens if you don't have a test before you move it?

According to the University, you will be required to self-quarantine, at your own expense, at a non-university facility for two weeks.
