The fall semester is very near, and we have important health and safety information, reminders, dates, and deadlines to share with you.
IMPORTANT: Health and Safety Information
Keeping Our Campus Community Safe
We are happy to welcome you to the fall semester and the 2022-23 academic year! Campus life will be busy this term so here are some guidelines to help you navigate our health and safety practices.
All students participating in classes on campus or using in-person services must comply with the NOCCCD vaccination mandate by uploading a vaccination record or request for exemption in the NOCCCD Vaccination Portlet. Once verified, you will be cleared for full on-campus activity. Our friendly staff is ready and waiting at the Welcome Center kiosk on the 1st floor of the Student Center to help you receive this clearance.
N95 Masks Available While masks are not currently required, we are pleased to make N95 respirator masks available to anyone at the college upon request. Learn more about this type of mask in this N95 FAQ and Training document.
Testing Center in NOCE, Rm. 118 Free testing continues on campus and is available now. Any employee or enrolled student who wishes to be tested may access our drive-up or walk-in service, and we encourage you to do so if you feel symptomatic or think you may have been exposed to COVID-19. Details, including hours, are available on the Coronavirus web page.
Verify Your Vax

Communication from Instructors & Course Syllabi
For remote courses, you should hear from your course instructors by the first day of class either via email or in Canvas. Instructors will inform you of the course structure and expectations for the semester. Please be sure to thoroughly read each of your course syllabi to ensure you know all that you need to for the semester.
No Parking Permit Needed This Semester Parking on the Cypress College campus will be free and no permits will be required during the fall 2022 semester.
If you are also attending on-campus classes at Fullerton College, you must pick up a free parking sticker at the FC Campus Safety Office to park on that that campus.
All other parking and traffic regulations will continue to be enforced throughout the district.
