COVID-19 Testing

Student Health Services offers a range of medical services to support SDSU students, including services for COVID-19.

Location and Hours

Enrolled students can access COVID testing at Student Health Services at the Calpulli Center Information Booth. Testing is available Monday through Friday, during business hours with an appointment.  For testing on evenings and weekend, the County of San Diego offers a number of free testing sites.

San Diego County Health and Human Services Agency also offers a convenient testing site at the Parma Payne Goodall Alumni Center.  This site is open Monday through Friday, 8:30 am - 4:00 pm.

Scheduling Appointments

Testing is available by appointment only. Online scheduling is available through HealtheConnect, our secure online health portal.  Students can also schedule appointments by calling Student Health Services at 619-594-4325. 

Cost

There is no cost for testing.

Testing Specifics

Students will be asked to self-collect their PCR test specimen with a nasal swab. This will be observed by an SHS team member in order to ensure proper collection. The testing is painless and students can complete the process in just a few minutes.

Results

Results are typically available in two to three days and will be sent via HealtheConnect. If students test positive, they will also receive a follow-up phone call.
