Off-Campus Living COVID-19 Update

GOVERNMENT RESOURCES AND GUIDELINES
Students living off campus should follow the state and county’s most up-to-date guidelines in order to protect yourself and the surrounding community. As a reminder, your hometown may have different guidelines than what is required in the Villanova area.

COMMUNITY FIRST: THE CARITAS COMMITMENT
Students living off-campus have increased exposure and an added responsibility to the community outside Villanova. It is Villanova's expectation that off-campus residents understand this responsibility and take seriously the safety of themselves and others. Community First: The CARITAS Commitment must be a central guiding principle when making decisions as an off-campus resident.
All students living off campus are expected to self-monitor for symptoms of COVID-19, to include temperature checks, prior to coming to campus each day. If you feel ill, do not come to campus. Stay home and contact the Student Health Center at 610-519-4070.
Please avoid gatherings, refrain from sharing drinks, socially distance, always wear a mask and wash your hands frequently. Local law enforcement may issue citations for non-compliance with health and safety guidelines. As always, other local laws and ordinances will continue to be enforced, such as noise violations, littering and open container violations, and public intoxication.
CAMPUS RESOURCES AND ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
There are a variety of campus offices that offer health and wellness resources for off-campus residents, including the University Counseling Center and Student Health Center. Off-campus residents are encouraged to contact these offices for support.
