Student COVID Info Fall 2021 Vaccine FAQ
Information below is only for the Fall 2021 semester.
Where do I find a COVID-19 vaccine near me?
If you are interested in receiving the COVID-19 vaccine, use vaccines.gov to find a location near you. To learn more about COVID-19 vaccines, visit the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) resource Vaccines for COVID-19.
Is the COVID-19 vaccine required for students?
The COVID-19 vaccine is not required, but highly recommended. Students are encouraged to consult Student Health Services, their private medical provider, or local department of health when making decisions about COVID-19 vaccination. While we will continue to study this issue, at this time State System universities do not have the legal authority to mandate COVID vaccines for students. Should there be a change in the law authorizing us to mandate COVID vaccines, we would reevaluate our position. Students interested in receiving the vaccine may use Vaccines.gov to find a location near them.
