Our records show that you are registered in an in-person course and have not yet declared your vaccination status and provided proof of full vaccination. If this is accurate, you have failed to comply with the York University’s vaccination mandate.
We are making one last attempt to confirm your attendance in an in-person course this fall semester without being compliant with our vaccine mandate. Please take immediate action or you risk de-enrolment from your in-person Fall 2021 or Fall/Winter 2021-2022 course(s), and will therefore receive no credit for these courses.
ACTION REQUIRED
- Inform us if your instructor has given you special permission to attend your in-person course remotely using this form; or
- Inform us if your courses are remote using this form; or
- Provide proof of full vaccination on YU Screen; and
- Do not come to campus unless you provide proof of full vaccination on YU Screen.
If you access campus without providing proof of full vaccination, you are in violation of the vaccine mandate.
BACKGROUND
Effective September 7, the University established a COVID-19 Vaccination Mandate (the “Policy”) pursuant to the instructions of the Office of the Chief Medical Officer of Health and the recommendations of the Council of Ontario Medical Officers of Health. The University is statutorily required to ensure compliance with this Policy.
Pursuant to the Policy, in order to attend in-person courses or activities and to have continued access to campus, you were required to submit through YU Screen by no later than end of day on October 18, 2021 proof that either: (a) you are Fully Vaccinated within the meaning of the Policy; or (b) York has granted you an exemption from the requirement to be Fully Vaccinated. A reminder was sent to all students on or about October 15, 2021, and updates for Winter term was sent on or about October 27, 2021.
Thank you for your immediate response to this email.
Sincerely,
Lucy Fromowitz
Vice-Provost Students
