SUNY lifts the COVID-19 vaccine requirement for JCC

The State University of New York no longer requires a COVID-19 vaccine for students attending Jamestown Community College, effective as of summer 2023, coinciding with the official end of the national public health emergency by President Biden’s administration.

Students enrolled in any program or course or who are participating in a clinical or internship held at a third-party location must continue to comply with all health and safety guidelines, including any vaccination or testing protocols that are in place at the third-party location.

Submit your records

If you have received the COVID-19 vaccination, turn your records in to the JCC Health Center.
