How to complete an exemption

Faculty, staff and students who cannot or who choose not to get a vaccine can complete an exemption.

Note: As with all required vaccines, in the event of an outbreak, exempted persons may be subject to exclusion from CU Boulder and quarantine. The specifics may vary depending on the circumstances of the outbreak.

There are two types of exemptions:

Medical exemption: Medical exemptions must be signed by a licensed physician and must include a date and a reason for exemption.
Non-medical exemption: Non-medical exemptions are for religious or personal beliefs that are opposed to immunizations.

For additional information regarding the COVID-19 vaccine and the exemption process, review the following course.
