REPORTING instructions

While not required, Virginia Tech students and employees are encouraged to be vaccinated, get a booster dose, and to report their vaccination status to the university. Vaccines remain our best protection against COVID-19.

Federal regulations may still require students who work in specific settings to be vaccinated, receive the booster when eligible, and upload their health information.

Student reporting

Students can upload a photo of their COVID-19 vaccination card to the Schiffert Online Health Portal.

Employee reporting

Employees can record their vaccination and booster information using the COVID-19 Vaccination Status Self-Reporting form, developed by Virginia Tech. 

For detailed instructions on reporting your vaccine or booster, visit the recording vaccine and booster information for employees page.
