COVID-19 Vaccination

COVID-19 Vaccination

Bellin College recognizes the importance of providing a safe and healthy learning environment for its employees, students, and the community. COVID vaccination is required by the CDC’s guidelines and Bellin Health System.

Fully vaccinated: An individual who is two weeks following receipt of the second dose in a two-dose series, or two weeks following receipt of one dose of a single-dose vaccine.

Unvaccinated: An individual who is not fully vaccinated including individuals whose vaccination status is unknown, have an approved medical and/or religious exemption, for the purposes of this policy.

Any newly admitted student must be fully vaccinated or have an approved exemption on file by the time classes start. If a student is a late admit, the student will be allowed five weeks to complete the vaccination series (become fully vaccinated) or exemption approval.

Protocol for Unvaccinated Students in Clinical

An Unvaccinated individual who is attending a clinical assignment must follow site specific guidelines which may include self-monitoring of symptoms.  The individual will be communicated with the guidelines and site-specific protocol prior to the start of the clinical assignment by college personnel.

COVID-19 Exemption

If you are declining the COVID vaccine, you must have an approved exemption from the College. If you would like to apply for an exemption, please reach out to the Health and Wellness Coodinator.
