New Campus Safety Guidelines require students to provide verification that they have been fully vaccinated for COVID-19 before returning to campus for Fall 2021.

This policy extends to all individuals participating in JMU-sponsored curricular offerings, such as Lifelong Learning.

Exceptions will be accommodated for medical conditions, religious beliefs or in cases where individuals agree in writing to the conditions set forth in an assumption-of-risk exemption.

All individuals who do not complete vaccination for any reason must complete an Assumption of Risk form, which defines the mitigation strategies that will be required of those who have not been fully vaccinated.

If you have questions or concerns about any of the COVID-19 vaccines, we encourage you to speak with your primary care physician. VaccineFinder is a helpful resource to find your most convenient vaccine location.

Lifelong Learners may send proof of vaccination by email attachment to Sue Gee at geesw@jmu.edu. Members may also mail a photocopy of their vaccination record or stop by our offices to have a photocopy made of the original vaccination card received during your vaccination appointment.
