The information on this website is current and will continue to be updated based on the latest public health protocols.
Before you come to campus:
- Daily health self-screening. All Cal State LA employees, students and visitors shall conduct a health self-screening for COVID-19 symptoms before arriving at Cal State LA.
- Masks are only required in the Student Health Center. Students, faculty, staff, and visitors are always welcome to wear a mask. Learn more about face masks.
About our campus:
- Ventilation and HVAC systems. We have conducted HVAC duct cleaning throughout campus. All buildings and classrooms have been confirmed safe for occupancy and are in compliance with the Los Angeles County Department of Public Health guidelines. We conduct routine and preventive HVAC maintenance throughout campus to ensure the upkeep of our infrastructure.
Covid-19 Vaccinations Strongly Recommended:
- Under a newly revised California State University policy, the COVID-19 vaccination is no longer required at CSU campuses but is strongly recommended. Cal State LA is implementing this policy. Effective April 6, 2023, the revised policy strongly recommends vaccines as a safety measure to help prevent serious illness.
