As of May 12, 2023, members of the Linfield community (employees, students and volunteers) are no longer required to be vaccinated from COVID-19. Linfield still strongly encourages all of its community members to be vaccinated against COVID-19 and stay up to date with boosters.

School of Nursing

Due to the requirements from clinical partners, School of Nursing students and faculty must provide proof of vaccination documentation in order to participate in clinical rotations and courses.

Nursing students and SON clinical faculty are not eligible for exemptions to COVID-19 vaccinations. The only exemption available is based on a documented medical reaction to a vaccine using the OHA medical exemption form. Read more under "Exemptions" in the Vaccine FAQ.

Please note: If site requirements include proof of vaccination and it cannot be provided to the site that is requiring it causing the participant to be unable to fulfill the program or employment duties, this may result in removal from the program or termination of employment.
