When I received the email stating that the UC and State schools were going to require the Covid Vax, I immediately copied and emailed the admissions office the Fontline Doctors Vax letter. (They aren’t taking phone calls and don’t promise to even return emails within 3 weeks). This was the reply back I received today, so I THINK my daughter is in the clear for a while, though I may still head down the exemption path preemptively.

Dear “MOM”,

Thank you for your email. This requirement is contingent upon full approval of one or more vaccines by the U.S. Federal Drug Administration (FDA), and adequate availability of fully approved vaccines.

The CSU also indicated that students, faculty and staff will be permitted to seek an exception this fall, to include an exemption for medical reasons, and more information about that guidance will be shared at a later time.

Please continue to watch your SCHOOL email for more information and updates on the vaccine requirement and exemption process. SCHOOL sends formal announcements and major updates to your @SCHOOL.edu account, and also updates the public-facing COVID-19 page regularly.

If you have further inquiries please respond to this email or visit our Virtual Front Desk (available Monday-Friday between 11AM-2PM PST). Thank you for contacting the Prospective Student Center.

Maybe this will give other parents a bit of peace, if not in the short term.
