Housing and Dining
The university continues to monitor local and national developments and rely on guidance from the Board of Regents, State of Iowa; the Iowa and Johnson County departments of public health (IDPH, JCPH); the Big Ten Conference; and the CDC. If you have any questions or concerns, our staff are available to help.

Self-isolation and quarantine
Due to the size of the incoming class, the University of Iowa will have limited space available in the Iowa House Hotel for students wishing to isolate or quarantine due to COVID-19.
Students who live off campus and need to isolate or quarantine, should follow the latest guidance from the CDC.
Medical care will be provided virtually by Student Health, the provider who made the diagnosis, or the student’s personal primary care provider.
