Covid Protocols & In-Person Attendance

Dear NYFA Community,  

First we would like to thank you for your diligence in keeping our community safe during this time. As we prepare for future months, we would like to remind everyone of the necessary protocols before arriving at any in-person NYFA activities. 

Anyone who has traveled outside the campus region is required to self-quarantine for 14 days upon their return before participating in any in-person NYFA attendance. 

NYFA requires anyone that plans to attend an in-person film shoot, Production Workshop, or the Campus, to get a COVID-19 test 2-6 days prior to your first day in-person.

  • For consecutive in-person days, a single test taken 2-6 days before the first day will suffice for the remainder of the week. Each week will require a new test.
  • Once you reach the “7th day,” that prior test will no longer be valid and you must receive a new one before attending in-person.

NYFA will only accept RT-PCR COVID-19 Tests and NOT the rapid Antigen tests

Here are links to FREE Testing Sites:

Availability times for these sites may vary.

Turnaround time for test results may vary. Most results are received within 24-72 hours. 

RESULTS can be sent as a screenshot or a forwarded email

  • In some cases, you must “Print and Download” to view the necessary information.
  • Must contain the following information:
    • Your name
    • Date test was taken
    • PCR Test
    • Results

Please SUBMIT all test results to the COVID-19 Team at covidteamla@nyfa.edu by 4 PM the BUSINESS DAY BEFORE you are scheduled to be in-person. 

  • If you are scheduled for a Saturday, Sunday or Monday, you need to submit your test results by 4 PM the Friday before.

Before arriving EACH DAY to any in-person attendance, you must fill out the Symptom Tracker - https://www.nyfa.edu/symptoms-tracking/ and show your results to the proper authority upon arrival. 

If you have any questions, please contact the COVID-19 Team at  covidteamla@nyfa.edu 

Thank you for keeping our community safe.
