The Ewha Safe Campus project has been launched in partnership with ©Seegene in efforts to ensure a safer educational and research environment on campus for the Ewha community prior to holding in-person classes during the Spring 2022 (2022-1st) semester. Such on-campus testing, which will be available starting March 2022, will allow for quicker and more convenient COVID testing. We ask for your active cooperation in helping keep our campus safe.

Test takers will conduct a self-test to reduce the discomfort of getting tested professionally. With guidance from a medical professional on site, you will need to collect samples of specimen from your mouth and nose using the provided swabs. The PCR tests will allow for more accurate results compared to the rapid antigen tests.

All members of the Ewha community planning to come to campus : Combo Swab (self-collected PCR test), Individuals whose movements overlaps with those of positive cases on campus : Combo Swab (self-collected PCR test) + NPS (PCR test taken by a medical professional)

※ Individuals identified as close contacts of a COVID-19 case on campus or having tested positive after conducting a Combo Swab may get tested at Station 2 without prior reservation, and by showing an SMS received from the on campus Health Center or '일상회복지원본부'
