Official UNT System Updates

As you enjoy the winter break this year, please keep in mind the CDC-recommended public health strategies, including wearing your face mask, staying socially distanced, and avoiding nonessential indoor spaces and crowded outdoor venues, among others. The first day of classes is Monday, Jan. 11.

To best prepare for the start of Spring 2021, please be mindful of the following:

  • All faculty, staff and students are strongly encouraged to get a COVID-19 test and to self-monitor for 14 days before returning to campus in January. The self-monitoring form can serve as a guide, and you also can use Bridge to access the COVID-19 safety protocols training as a refresher. The student version is available through Canvas.
  • Daily COVID-19 testing administered by WellHealth will continue at the Union Circle Garage. The testing is available with no individual out-of-pocket cost. To register, visit gogettested.com, search for Denton on the map and follow the “Book Now" link on the "Denton – UNT Union Circle Garage – Texas Emergency Management” location and include the group code "UNT." Including the “UNT” code allows positive test results to be sent directly to UNT's COVID response team. Testing is offered from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sundays, except for holidays.
  • All faculty, staff or students arriving from any international location will be asked to quarantine off campus for 10 days. International students who will be living on campus will be provided with an on-campus quarantine room. To report your international travel to the COVID hotline, call 844-366-5892 or email at COVID@unt.edu for instructions on their quarantine period or on-campus quarantine housing.

Some important dates for students and parents to keep in mind:

  • Registration for all classifications will remain open until 5:30 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 7. Late registration will open Friday, Jan. 8, but note that a late fee will be assessed at this time. To speak to an advisor for guidance, schedule an appointment with your college from the Advising Appointments webpage.
  • Residence halls reopen for move-in beginning Wednesday, Jan. 6. Visit the Spring 2021 Move-In announcement to find move-in information and signup instructions for move-in dates and times.
  • Payment for spring classes is due by 6 p.m. on Thursday, Jan. 7. More information about payment options and deadlines can be found on the Student Financial Services’ Payments webpage.
