All Higher Education Students, Faculty and Staff Now Eligible for COVID-19 Vaccinations

 
As of Monday, April 19, all New Jersey residents age 16 and over are now eligible for the COVID-19 vaccine. This includes all college students and higher education employees, including faculty and staff.

NJCU students and employees who have yet to be vaccinated are strongly encouraged to register. To assist NJCU employees with access to vaccinations, the University has partnered with the North Hudson Community Action Corporation (NHCAC) to administer COVID-19 vaccinations on behalf of our institution.

Contributing to our partnership with NHCAC to administer vaccines will be students, faculty, and staff from NJCU’s nationally-ranked nursing program. Their willingness to join the frontline efforts to help our community prevail over this pandemic is inspiring to all of us. Our partnership with NHCAC will facilitate direct and priority access to vaccines to our entire campus community (as noted below). Of course, students and employees are encouraged to secure individual appointments for any vaccination available to them should another more convenient vaccine option be available. NJCU’s partnership with NHCAC is simply an additional option for us.  

The two-dose Moderna COVID-19 vaccine will be administered at the locations, dates and times listed below. The second dose will be scheduled at the time of your first vaccine. If interested, please complete the COVID-19 vaccination interest form that is linked here. Within 24-hours, you will receive an email to your NJCU account with vaccination registration information and next steps.

With the vaccine becoming readily available to our NJCU community, we are one step closer to returning to pre-pandemic schedules.
