The safety of our students, faculty, and staff is our top priority. See below for more information on what you can expect during your visit.
Effective January 19th, both the Brooklyn and Manhattan Campuses will be open from 7am to 12 midnight, 7 days per week to all current students, faculty and staff who have met the necessary campus access requirements.
Before returning to campus, all students, faculty and staff should review the campus access checklist below for important details.
All students, faculty and staff will be required to submit a negative COVID-19 PCR diagnostic test result prior to entering campus after January 4, 2021, regardless of previous testing for the fall semester. The negative COVID-19 PCR test result must be dated within seven (7) days prior to returning to campus. Faculty and staff should submit test results using the online COVID Test Results form. Pratt does not accept rapid tests, antibody/antigen tests, or self-administered PCR tests that are done without a medical provider supervising.
Please note: Students scheduled to reside in the residence halls for Spring 2021 should confirm COVID-19 test result submission dates with Residence Life staff.
Test results may not appear in the system for up to 24 hours (Monday - Friday) after you have submitted them. Supervisors should plan accordingly with their staff for remote work while test results are being processed.
We encourage you to monitor local COVID-19 testing turnaround times, as these may vary depending on demand for testing, and factor this into your planned return to campus.
Follow the guidelines provided upon completing the questionnaire.
Once you complete the questionnaire, you will receive a digital self-assessment status badge, within the app.
Upon arrival on campus
Pratt community members may experience a line or queue at the main entrance of either campus. Please be patient as we transition to a new semester together.
