USM to Require COVID-19 Vaccinations for Employees, Students on Campus in Fall
May 05, 2021On April 23, the University System of Maryland (USM) Board of Regents approved Chancellor Perman’s mandate that all eligible faculty, students, and staff who will be on campus this fall must be vaccinated against COVID-19. USM will comply with all federal and state laws in granting appropriate exemptions for medical or religious reasons.
As we plan for an increased presence at the University of Maryland, Baltimore (UMB), 70 percent of faculty and 67 percent of students have already been vaccinated. In addition, anyone who works, lives, or studies within the city of Baltimore is eligible to be vaccinated at the SMC Campus Center Vaccination Clinic. Please visit — and share — the website www.GetTheVaccineBaltimore.org to make an appointment.
UMB will review the mandate and share updates on UMB’s processes related to vaccination and submitting proof of vaccination, when available.
