JAMESTOWN, N.Y. — SUNY Jamestown Community College, in accordance with a mandate from the State University of New York, will require incoming and returning students to receive the COVID-19 vaccination pending the federal government’s full approval of the vaccine.

Students who are fully vaccinated with an FDA-authorized COVID vaccine and provide proof of vaccination will have no COVID-19 related restrictions. Vaccination records must be provided two weeks prior to arriving on campus for any reason.

Students who are unvaccinated, partially vaccinated, vaccinated with a COVID vaccine not FDA-authorized, and/or have approved medical or religious exemptions, must continue to wear a mask in indoor areas, outdoor areas if unable to maintain six-foot distancing, and public transportation. They must also participate in pool testing and complete a daily COVID screening.
