Starting May 20th, the College will no longer require COVID-19 vaccinations. Everyone is strongly encouraged to get vaccinated and stay up to date, and to provide this information to the College.  We will continue to monitor Federal, State of New York, and the City's guidance on this issue and infection trends, and respond as needed.
