To comply with CU Boulder’s COVID-19 vaccine requirement, members of the campus community are required to have received the initial series of vaccine plus one booster, or file for an exemption.
Students, faculty and staff must upload proof of boosters or file for an exemption based on medical, ethical or moral grounds through the MyCUHealth portal. Individuals who previously submitted an exemption do not need to take further action at this time and will be considered in compliance with current university vaccine requirements.
There are two ways to complete the vaccine requirement:
All faculty and staff must complete the COVID-19 vaccine requirement or exemption in the MyCUHealth portal. The only exception will be faculty and staff vaccinated through CU Boulder Medical Services. Data from Medical Services will be uploaded to the portal on behalf of faculty and staff vaccinated through Medical Services.
Step 1:
Go to the MyCUHealth portal, select “Faculty/Staff: Vaccine Compliance” and login with your Identikey username and password.
