  • Saturday, April 3, 1:00-3:00 p.m.

NOTE:  This vaccine will most likely follow the two-dose protocol.  Students will make their second dose appointment (minimum of 21 days) at the vaccine clinic after they receive their first dose of vaccine.

How to Register for a Vaccine Appointment through UE
(Registration through UE is only available through March 31)

The registration process requires the following:

  • Select appointment date and time
  • Confirm appointment
  • You will receive a text or email from the Indiana Department of Health with additional instructions for completing your registration process. It is VERY important that you do this prior to arriving for your appointment
  • Non-Indiana Resident:  If you are NOT a resident of Indiana, use your local (campus) address for the registration process
  • Insurance: if you have insurance, you will be asked to provide this information. You will not be charged for the vaccine. This step is to assist St. Vincent with their communication regarding insurance and state protocols. 
  • Everyone - Be sure to take your UE I.D., photo I.D., and insurance card if you have one with you to your appointment.
