As a reminder, Loyola is requiring all students to be fully vaccinated for COVID-19 before the fall 2021 semester. We strongly encourage all faculty and staff to receive the vaccine, as well. Read the announcement.

If you have not already, we encourage you to upload your COVID-19 vaccination card to the Loyola Health function of the Loyola mobile application. Please do not email a copy of your vaccination card. To upload your card, please follow the steps outlined below:

1. Open the Loyola mobile app and select the “Loyola Health” function. From there, you will see a login page. Log in using your UVID and password.
2. After logging in, select “Upload Vaccination” on the top menu.
3. Select the vaccine type (Pfizer, Moderna, or Johnson & Johnson), enter the date of your first and/or second doses, and upload your vaccination card.
4. After entering all information, click “Submit” to save the vaccination card.

These steps can also be found on the vaccine information page.

After you upload your card, you will be contacted if your upload was approved or not approved. If it is not approved, you will receive an email asking you to check for the most common errors and to upload your vaccination card again. If you have questions from there, we encourage you to reach out to COVID-19support@LUC.edu.
