PennOpen Screening

In accordance with the latest Public Health Guidance, all campus visitors are required to wear an N95 or double mask while indoors. We do not allow eating in our space. Specialized masks and barriers for breath instruments are required and available from our staff during work hours. Please contact our team at platthouse[at]pobox.upenn.edu, or email a staff member directly with your questions!

For students, staff, faculty, and members of the Penn community:


PennOpen Pass is a daily symptom tracker designed to reduce the risk of COVID-19 spreading within the Penn community. PennOpen Pass requires a Pennkey for access.

For visitors and audience members without a PennKey:


PennOpen Campus is a required, pre-arrival, daily screening for all University of Pennsylvania event participants, day visitors, vendors, and non-badged contractors. The screening will generate either a Green Pass required to enter University buildings, or a Red Pass which advises the individual to seek care from a health care provider. 

The University of Pennsylvania also requires visitors to follow public health guidelines for vaccination, wearing masks, physical distancing, hand washing, and helping keep our campus safe. For the University Public Health Guidance visit public health guidance.
