COVID-19 Safety Protocols FAQs
Did you test positive for COVID-19?
In case of a positive COVID-19 test, please complete our COVID-19 Contact Tracing Form.
This form is confidential, but it will allow us to keep the community safe and take necessary precautions such as the following:
- Inform impacted parties of the steps they need to take to keep themselves and others safe.
- Sanitize impacted areas on campus for use by others.
- Transition from on-campus to online teaching accordingly.
1. What should I do if I am coming to campus?
All AUPP students, faculty and staff will be required to submit the AUPP Covid Health Declaration Form (HDF) online daily if they plan to come to campus. The HDF may be accessed via SIS login and is recommended to be completed before coming to campus. Printed copies can also be filled out manually at the entrance to campus, in case of technical challenges.
Entry to the Campus will be dependent upon the Color Code resulting from answers to the HDF questionnaire.
- Red: No entry will be allowed
- Orange: Further assessment by AUPP Nurse to determine if student will be allowed entry or not
- Green: Entry will be allowed
Visitors
At this time, all visitors to AUPP will be pre-screened before visiting campus is permitted. Relevant parties and offices inviting visitors will inform AUPP Operations of the visit to ensure a welcoming experience.
All visitors to AUPP will be required to submit the Health Declaration Google Form before entering the AUPP campus, which can also be accessed at our campus entry. Our guard will also require proof of vaccination before entry is granted.

In case of testing positive at the nurse’s office, MOH hotline 115 will be informed of the positive case, and the student will be assisted in completing the COVID-19 Contact Tracing Form.
8. If a person tests positive for COVID-19 are they still required to notify the university?
9. I am feeling unwell. Can I go to campus to get tested by the school nurse?
10. I have been exposed to someone who tested positive for COVID. What should I do?
- In case of general contact, you must isolate for at least five (5) days.
- In case of close contact, you must isolate for at least seven (7) days.
Note: The Guidance can be changed and updated anytime according to local and international guidelines.
Before leaving isolation, you must perform a rapid antigen test and test negative to leave isolation. If result is still negative, and no symptoms are observed, you will be cleared to come back to campus after the last isolation day.
In the event of a positive rapid antigen test, please proceed to the nearest medical center or hospital for a confirmatory PCR test.

For faculty, a Return To Work Self Declaration Form should be approved by your immediate supervisor / head and validated by the HR Department. Original copy of the form should be submitted to HR upon return to campus.
