The University is updating its COVID-19 screening processes to align with regulations the Ontario government recently announced.
Effective Monday, November 30, 2020, you must complete the new screening questions before accessing campus. You will get an email with a link to the new screening tool when your device connects to the campus wireless network (eduroam) or when you complete the manual Campus Check-In form.
Your privacy is important to the University. Policy 46 - Information Management and the Guidelines on Use of Waterloo computing and network resources protect any personally identifying information that eduroam collects.
Information collected through the new screening tool will be kept on a University database for 30 days before being deleted. The University will not store individual responses to the questions but will track overall “pass/fail” screening results. These results will be shared directly to the University’s Safety Office.
Find more safety information on the health and safety resources web page, the Welcome Back Waterloo guide, and the Campus Check-In website.

The University of Waterloo acknowledges that much of our work takes place on the traditional territory of the Neutral, Anishinaabeg, and Haudenosaunee peoples. Our main campus is situated on the Haldimand Tract, the land granted to the Six Nations that includes six miles on each side of the Grand River. Our active work toward reconciliation takes place across our campuses through research, learning, teaching, and community building, and is co-ordinated within the Office of Indigenous Relations.
