COVID-19 University Updates
The University will report major University actions decided by the Emergency Operations
Committee and any new reported cases of COVID-19 within the community as information
becomes available. The University will continue to provide periodic updates on this
webpage if new COVID-19 cases are reported. This count should not be considered comprehensive
due to the University's significant reliance upon self-reporting and the quickly changing
nature of the outbreak.
Pepperdine COVID-19 Dashboard
*Cases include cumulative positive results from Pepperdine screening testing, other
University testing, and diagnostic or self-tests by community members in their home
locations.
**Active cases are defined as University community members who have tested positive
and are currently within their isolation period.
+On-campus and off-campus designations are determined by information gleaned in contact
tracing. As a result, adding these two categories may not always equal Pepperdine’s
total cases. This information updates as the contact tracing process progresses. On-campus
indicates a case who was present on a Pepperdine campus. Off-campus indicates a case
with no presence on a Pepperdine campus.

University Positivity Rate
- The University's positivity rate is determined by Pepperdine weekly screening testing, based on the date the test was taken.
- Since shifting to optional testing on March 20, 2022, the number of individuals testing each week has significantly decreased and continues to go down. These smaller testing populations lead to greater fluctuations in Pepperdine's positivity rate.
