What kind of health and safety precautions will be in place?

Please note that a COVID-19 vaccine will be required for all IU students, faculty and staff. This new requirement will then allow the university to lift most restrictions on masking and physical distancing. In addition, other health and safety precautions, including scaled-down testing, will remain in place.

How do I report my COVID-19 vaccine to IU?

All current students, faculty and staff will use IU’s COVID-19 vaccine report form to attest that they are vaccinated and report all doses of your vaccine. If you’re receiving a two-dose vaccine, you should complete the form after each dose.
