TB Screening FAQs
What is the difference between the TB screening survey and a TB skin test?
All degree-seeking students, faculty and staff must first complete the screening survey. The survey checks for possible TB risk. If you answer yes to any question, you must complete follow-up skin testing.
What happens if I do not submit TB documentation?
A registration hold will be placed on your student account for the next semester. The hold will stay in place until the survey and any required follow-up are completed.
Do online students need to complete the survey?
Yes. All degree-seeking ϳԹ students must complete the survey, including online students. Students taking only online classes may request a waiver for the follow-up requirement. The waiver is valid only for the current semester and only if the student is enrolled only in online classes.
