They can provide assistance on filling out exemptions (e.g., on leave, terminal leave, out of state, etc.) and ensuring you are identified as being remote.
Faculty, staff and students who require medical accommodation, are at high risk or have a family member that is at high risk may request a testing accommodation by filling out the form linked below.
