As of January 9, 2023, with the exception of the UIHealth system and clinics, which have separate regulations, the University of Illinois System will no longer require the COVID-19 primary vaccine series for students and employees. Staying up to date with the most recent vaccine or booster available is strongly recommended and free testing continues to be available. Effective February 20, 2023, masking is encouraged but no longer required in classrooms, lecture centers, research labs, libraries and learning/success centers, the Counseling Center and on UIC shuttles and buses.
