On May 11, 2021, Clarkson University announced it will require the COVID-19 vaccine for all students age 16+, faculty, and staff who will be on our campuses.
Medical and religious exemptions will be accommodated, but the expectation is that Clarkson will be a largely vaccinated community, providing the safest learning and living environment for all.
All employees and student workers in the University community who will work directly in person with K-12 youth as part of their jobs in summer programs and/or recruitment or community outreach will be required to submit proof of COVID-19 vaccination by June 21, 2021. All others will be required to complete vaccination requirements by August 1, 2021.
Please see the attached policy that outlines how employees and students can request a medical or religious exemption.
