Campus COVID-19 Vaccination Rates

Percentage of students and employees with a primary vaccination, and percentage of eligible students with a booster.

CDC defines "Primary Series" of COVID-19 vaccines as two doses of Pfizer or Moderna, or one dose of Johnson and Johnson vaccine.

Not all students are eligible for boosters as of today's date. Click here to review the CDC's guidelines on Booster shot eligibility.

* While our Active and Recovered case tallies may include individuals who were tested at off-campus facilities, these figures will not be included in the Positivity Rate calculation, which only counts tests that take place on campus.

** On-campus testing is performed by Enzo Labs, SHS and SUNY Upstate Medical University. This figure reflects tests performed, therefore some test results may still be pending.

† From on-campus tests

Active cases are defined as a confirmed positive COVID-19 test among individuals who have been on campus and may have exposed others. Learn more about our testing and tracing protocols here. This Dashboard will be updated Monday – Friday by 10 a.m.
