Dear Members of the Boston College Community:

We write today to provide updates on the University鈥檚 plans related to COVID-19 during the second semester.

Spring Semester Initial Testing

As we did this past August, the University will require that all individuals who plan to participate in activities on campus during the spring semester be tested for COVID-19 prior to the first day of classes on January 18.

Faculty and staff will test between Monday, January 10, and Friday, January 14 (see schedule below).听 Testing for students who reside on campus will occur during their move-in January 15-17, as scheduled through Residential Life.听 Undergraduates who live off campus and graduate/professional students should test as soon as they return to the area and before engaging in on-campus activities, preferably during the January 10-14 period.听 All COVID-19 tests will take place in the Margot Connell Recreation Center鈥檚 MAC Courts during the following times:

Monday, January 10听 听 听 听 听8:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m.

COVID-19 Vaccination Boosters

Boston College has benefited from an extremely high level of vaccination this semester (99.3%) that has helped keep our community safe and has enabled our students, faculty, and staff to experience as normal a year as possible.听 Vaccinations and boosters are helping to make COVID-19 a manageable illness.听 Accordingly, members of our community who plan to be on campus at any point during the spring semester听must obtain a COVID-19 booster vaccination when eligible and upload their card (see below) by February 9, 2022,听which is six months from the August 2021 date when students were required to have received their second Pfizer or Moderna dose, or single Johnson & Johnson/Janssen vaccine.听

The only exception to this booster requirement will be for those who previously obtained a University-approved religious or medical COVID-19 vaccination exemption and have not since been fully vaccinated. 听Those few community members who were approved by UHS or Human Resources to receive their last Pfizer or Moderna shot after August 9, 2021, and may not be eligible for a booster by February 9, should contact UHS (students) or HR (faculty and staff) for approval on their early second semester booster timetable.

COVID-19 Vaccination Booster Clinics & Card Uploading Instructions

Boston College will continue to offer COVID-19 vaccination booster clinics early next semester, including each day during the initial testing period January 10-17 (information and appointment sign-up will be forthcoming).听

We encourage you to receive a booster shot as soon as you are eligible at one of the 糖心vlog直播平台 booster clinics or at a local pharmacy during the Christmas break.听 Those who have already received their booster or who receive it at home in the coming weeks should upload their vaccination/booster card and information as soon as possible.听
