Students should use the usual process for uploading their required booster documentation. The deadline to upload documentation of COVID-19 booster has been deferred to the end of May 2022. Effective January 18, cloth masks will not be acceptable protection in indoor Columbia University settings. All Columbia affiliates must wear surgical masks at all times in indoor settings in Columbia facilities, regardless of vaccination status. (Some individuals may choose to wear other mask types such as KN95 or KF94. N95 masks are required for specific clinical patient-facing settings.) We strongly encourage masking outdoors in large gatherings. Unvaccinated individuals must continue to wear masks both indoors and outdoors.
