ACTION REQUIRED: Final Notice Regarding the University’s Vaccination Policy Requirements

by Betsy Chapman, Ph.D. ('92, MA '94)

Dear parents and families,

Today, students received a final notice from Wake Forest regarding the University’s vaccination policy requirements. Students who received this message will have their Spring 2022 class schedule dropped and their University housing assignment removed (if applicable) unless they come into compliance by 11:59 pm on Thursday, January 13, 2022.

Please encourage your student to check their vaccine compliance by going to the Student Health Portal > My Profile > Immun History. Their Immun. History must show the following:

The name of the COVID booster and the date they received it (or an approved exemption)

The influenza (flu) vaccine and the date they received it (or an approved exemption)

Please discuss this with your student as soon as possible, as the deadline for compliance is rapidly approaching. 

Even if they think they uploaded their documentation, if they received a message, it means that the University believes they are not in compliance with the vaccine policy. 

Thank you for your assistance with this matter. We want to ensure students do not have an interruption in their academic progress.
