University IT has developed an app for a smartphone or computer that University students can use to show proof of their COVID-19 vaccination status. Similar to the way that students present proof of their Dr. Chat Bot completion by showing University officials a “checkmark” screen, the new UR COVID-19 Vaccine Status app allows for the same type of presentation when it comes to needing to show vaccination status to enter University events, activities, or campus spaces.

The new app was designed to work immediately for commencement events and activities, as well as into the fall semester. In order for the app to work, full-time students are still required to upload their official vaccination data to UHSConnect, which is the system that the app relies upon to securely pull data.
