Important Information to Prepare for Phase 1c and 2 Vaccine Distribution
The University shared important information for students in advance of Phase 1c and 2 of COVID-19 vaccine distribution, including actions that may be required on your part.

As of now, the University expects most students to be eligible in Phase 2, which the City of Chicago is estimating to begin May 31. Other students may be eligible in Phase 1c, including those with medical conditions that place them at higher risk of serious health outcomes from COVID-19, and students whose employment includes classroom or on-campus duties. Please note that the City’s vaccination schedule remains subject to change. Although most students likely will need to wait until Phase 2 to be vaccinated, the University is providing information now to help with preparations for vaccination whenever you are eligible. The University’s February 24 message included information about how to opt out from the creation of a medical record for vaccination purposes and how to self-identify as an individual with high-risk condition(s), which may affect the timing of your eligibility for vaccination. Please see the full message and these FAQs for further details.
