Dear Members of the Monmouth University Community:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am writing with an update to the University\u2019s policy regarding the University\u2019s COVID-19 vaccination protocol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Effective with the start of the Summer 2023 semester, which begins on May 15, we will no longer require that all members of the community get the COVID-19 vaccine primary series or bivalent booster. Students and faculty engaged in clinical\/field work or other experiential learning are required to follow each clinical or field site’s policies, which may include proof of full vaccination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We continue to highly recommend<\/strong> that all members of the community get the COVID-19 vaccine primary series as well as the bivalent booster as recommended by the CDC. We also encourage all students and employees to continue to inform the University of their COVID-19 vaccination status on the health portal to ensure that the University can respond appropriately to any outbreak situation on campus, consistent with prevailing CDC guidelines.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Please note, if the CDC and\/or New Jersey Department of Health guidelines change, the University will revisit this policy and may change its requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
