The university has identified a variety of quiet spaces where students can study and have private conversations. If you have an appointment with UHCS and would like to find a private space, please review the study spaces website to see availability.

In accordance with the MA Department of Public Health announcement (1/15/2021), the flu vaccination is no longer required for students. However getting your flu vaccine is still strongly encouraged as we protect from both the flu and it could decrease symptoms that could be confused with COVID-19. For more information about the recommendation of a flu vaccine, please visit MA Department of Public Health.

COVID-19

The University has developed a comprehensive website dedicated to COVID-19. We encourage you to review this website with questions regarding the latest updates, information and FAQs.

In addition UHCS has developed a series of COVID-19 Resources
