An Important Message for FSC Students
Consistent with the SUNY mandate, and as part of the College’s ongoing efforts to
limit the spread of the coronavirus, FSC is requiring testing of students attending in-person classes as well as all residential students. You must comply with all requirements for pre-Thanksgiving, post-Thanksgiving, and Finals Week testing or risk disciplinary action including possible suspension. Students will be required to participate in pooled
saliva testing or provide proof of a negative PCR or Rapid antigen COVID-19. All on campus testing will be conducted in the Roosevelt Hall Multipurpose Room. Please carefully read the message below.
Pre-Thanksgiving Testing
Residential students and those students with an on-campus class or laboratory will
be required to test by pooled saliva testing or provide proof of a negative PCR or
