Register now for upcoming on-campus vaccine clinics

While the COVID-19 vaccine is not required on Augusta University’s campuses, experts continue to strongly encourage vaccination to protect against COVID-19, including the Delta variant.

To encourage vaccination, the university will host several on-campus vaccine clinics in the month of August for students and AU Health employees.

AU student vaccine clinics

9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Wednesday, Aug. 25 – JSAC Ballroom
  • The second dose will be administered Sept. 15.
9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Tuesday, Aug. 31 JSAC Ballroom
  • The second dose will be administered Sept. 21.

Registration is encouraged, but walk-ins are welcome.

AU Health employee vaccine clinic

1 p.m. to 4:30 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 26 Professional Building 1
  • Employees can sign up for an appointment here.

In addition to vaccination, the university also encourages the use of masks or face coverings while inside campus facilities.

Note that masks are required in campus shuttles or in clinical spaces such as Augusta University Medical Center, the College of Nursing’s Nurse-Managed Health Center or the Dental College of Georgia clinics.
