Given the way campus life inherently puts people in close proximity to each
other, including residence and dining halls, classrooms, and gatherings, the
University has determined that a vaccination requirement is the best way to
keep our community safe and prevent potential outbreaks as we return to more
regular, in-person operations. St. Catherine University is requiring all
students, faculty (including adjuncts contracted for the fall semester and
beyond), staff, and residents age 12 and older to complete their COVID-19
vaccination series unless the University approves a medical or religious
accommodation or other accommodation/exemption as required by applicable
law. New employees must submit vaccination documentation or be approved for
an exemption/accommodation before beginning work. For more information, visit
