Testing is available at Montana State University only for students who are showing symptoms of COVID-19. At this time, the state of Montana does not have the capacity for widescale testing of asymptomatic individuals. The priority is on testing people who have symptoms.

Please note that the MSU Symptomatic Student Testing Center will be closed on Tuesday, Nov. 3, and Wednesday, Nov. 11, for university holidays.

Please Note
When seeking testing, please be sure to list your local address, even if it is a residence hall room, and not an address outside of Gallatin County or the state. This helps the Gallatin City-County Health Department quickly identify close contacts.

Special information for on-campus residents

Please immediately call your residence hall front desk and inform them that you plan to seek a test so they can assist you with self-quarantine afterward. Please pack back a small bag of clothing, toiletries, your phone and laptop, charging cables and any prescription medications you may need before you head to the testing site as you will need to go into quarantine housing after you are tested.
