Dear Student Leaders,
Here are a few reminders and a few more details about tomorrow's registration process. If you have any questions or concerns please feel free to get in touch with Dean of Community Life Rob Manning. We look forward to seeing you very soon.
Important Facts You Need to Know About Returning to Gould
- No Student or visitor will be allowed on campus who is experiencing COVID-19 symptoms.

All students must arrive with a Negative COVID-19 Test. No student will be allowed to register and move in without this test. Please contact the Gould Health Center if your test results have not come back.

Testing at GOULD
-
Students must have a signed consent form from a parent or guardian in order to have testing done on campus (visit the Magnus link on the MyGould parent portal.
Arriving at Gould
Each student has been assigned a specific time to arrive on campus. If you arrive early, stay in your car until your designated time. If you are late for your appointment, you will be asked to wait until the last scheduled person has arrived and then you will be allowed to register. Family members will not be allowed to enter the dorm. Thank you in advance for your patience and understanding.
- Day Students should go directly to the Registration area on the Upper Field next to Ordway.
- Boarders will go directly to their dormitory, where a member of the Gould family will instruct on where to unload belongings and park the car.
- Boarders will then proceed to the Registration process on the Upper Field.
- Once the Registration process is complete, students will be able to return to their dorm and begin unpacking. We ask students to limit this to 30 minutes.
- We remind all students and visitors assisting them to please wear masks throughout the move-in/registration process.
Registration Process
The first stop when you arrive at Registration will be the COVID-19 screening tent. Each student and visitor will complete the following with a nurse:
- Temperature Check
- Symptom Check
- Big Three Review: Face covering, Hand Hygiene, Distancing
-
Proof of Negative Test for the student must be presented.
Next steps in the Registration process:
- Gould Health Center Intake
- Academic Scheduling
- College Counseling
- Business Office
- Technology
- Athletics and Co-curriculars
- Laundry Sign-up
For health and safety reasons, we ask that visitors involved in the Registration process, leave campus as soon as possible once the process is complete.
ORIENTATION
Once you have registered, you will set up your Gould computer to prepare for your classes, and you will review the things you need for your orientation trip. Your trip leaders will help you find anything that you might be missing from the list. Day students should bring their orientation gear to registration day so it can be checked by trip leaders.
There is no need to buy a camp chair, hammock, or tent, but if you have one, bring it along. It may come in handy on your trip, and we will check it out to make sure it will be ok to bring based on your trip.
