BOOK NOW: Vaccine appointments

Fri, 07 May 2021 08:51:20 -0400

Dear Students,

As we shared in the survey we sent you last week, we are now able to offer free on-campus COVID-19 vaccinations. Our first clinic will be for students on Tuesday, May 11 from 9 AM - 1 PM in the UC Ballroom and we will be offering the Pfizer vaccine, sign-up here for the first dose. We have a limited number of shots so please sign up ASAP. When you arrive on campus, please park in Lot 8. You must wear a mask and practice physical distancing.

The Pfizer vaccination requires two shots three weeks apart. We will offer second shots on campus on Tuesday, June 1, 9AM - 1 PM. You should make plans to complete your vaccination series by either a) have a secure plan to return to campus for your second shot, or b) commit to scheduling the second Pfizer dose at a pharmacy or mass vaccination site near your home. You must get both shots on schedule to comply with the vaccine requirement for Fall 2021. You can sign-up to receive your second dose on campus here.

We know that these dates overlap with the end of the semester and that some students may be concerned about vaccine reactions. While reactions to the first shot are typically mild, you are welcome to wait and seek vaccination off-campus at a later time. We also plan to offer additional clinics on campus throughout the summer. Remember that you are fully vaccinated 2 weeks after your last vaccine dose, so plan enough time after your second shot before you return to campus in the fall.

If you are unable to schedule an appointment for May 11, we will be having another clinic on Wednesday, May 12 from 9 AM - 12 noon, offering the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. Sign-up here for the Johnson & Johnson vaccine clinic.

If you have already been vaccinated, please report your vaccination.
