Unvaccinated students at all 64 State University of New York campuses are now facing a COVID-19 mandate.


Students have 35 days to get their shots. In the meantime, they're still required to provide saliva samples for testing until they're fully immunized.

Anyone who fails to meet the vaccine mandate will be un-enrolled or have to take their classes remotely.

State officials are also strongly encouraging SUNY faculty and staff to be vaccinated.
