All University of Minnesota students enrolled online or in person (including all undergraduate, graduate, professional, and Post Secondary Enrollment Option) must complete this Student COVID-19 Immunization Vaccination Form by Oct. 8, 2021. The form asks students to either submit their vaccination information or submit documentation of a religious or medical exemption.
If students do not provide the Vaccination Form, they will be out of compliance with the University’s vaccination requirement and prohibited from registering for classes in the future.
