Important Reminders
- Please note that the FDA and the CDC have authorized heterologous boosters often referred to as “mixing and matching” vaccines. For instance, if you originally received two doses of the Pfizer-BioNTech vaccine, you can receive a booster from either Pfizer or Moderna.
- Allow 30 minutes for your appointment so you can remain at the vaccine site for 15 minutes of monitoring after your dose.
- Please bring your medical insurance card/information, and COVID vaccination card/information to the appointment
COVID Rapid Antigen Test Availability
Home-use rapid antigen tests are available for students, faculty and staff upon request, and free of charge, on all of our Global University System campuses. On the Boston campus, tests can be picked up in the Curry Student Center at the Crossroads Desk, located on the ground floor, and at University Health & Counseling Services, located at 135 Forsyth Building (70 Forsyth Street).

UHCS participates in the Massachusetts Immunization Information System (MIIS). To learn more, please see below.
Massachusetts Immunization Information System (MIIS) Massachusetts law (M.G.L. c. 111, Section 24M) requires providers to report immunization information to a computerized immunization registry known as the Massachusetts Immunization Information System (MIIS).
- The MIIS stores immunization records for you and your clinician and can help prevent outbreaks of disease like measles and the flu.
- All information in the MIIS is kept secure and confidential.
- The MIIS allows information to be shared with health care providers, boards of public health and state agencies concerned with immunization.
- You have the right to object to the sharing of your immunization information across providers in the MIIS. If you object, please complete this form and bring it to your appointment or submit it to [email protected].
- For more information, visit the MIIS website at www.mass.gov/dph/miis or contact the Massachusetts Immunization Program MIIS Help Desk directly at 617-983-4335.
- The MIIS opt-out does not apply to reportable suspected and positive diseases.
