COVID-19 Booster Update

Following the CDC recommendation that immunocompromised individuals receive a booster dose of the Pfizer-BioNTech COVID-19 vaccine or Moderna COVID-19 vaccine, the college is investigating opportunities to provide booster doses to eligible members of its community. 

For the time being, students and employees should contact their primary care provider for guidance on obtaining a booster dose. The college will provide an update at its next community meeting on on-campus booster availability.
