Spring 2022 Information

Thank you for your continued commitment to the steps and behaviors that have helped us keep our community safe. As federal, state, and local public health guidelines have continued to evolve, Harvard has updated its guidance accordingly. Of particular note:

  • Masks: With limited exceptions, Harvard has shifted to a mask optional approach. Anyone who prefers to continue wearing a mask indoors is free to do so, and their personal health decisions should be respected.
  • Testing: Each member of the Harvard community is expected to test at least weekly. You can find your updated testing cadence requirement by logging into Crimson Clear, but you can test more often if you need to.
  • Feeling Sick? If you’re experiencing symptoms, please complete a Self Assessment Crimson Clear, which will initiate a consultation with Harvard University Health Services. Please wait for guidance from HUHS before returning to campus activity.

Please be sure to review the additional information, including our COVID-19 Policies & Protocols and FAQs, below for more details.

How to Verify Your Vaccination

How to Verify Your Vaccination


Thank you to every member of our community who has already verified their COVID booster by submitting it to Harvard University Health Services (HUHS). The University is requiring COVID vaccination and boosters for all community members who will have any on-campus presences this spring. If you have recently become eligible for a booster and haven’t submitted your verification yet, please visit the Verify Your Vaccination webpage and follow the instructions. If you received your booster through HUHS, you do not need to submit any information, as HUHS already has your information on file. HUHS keeps individual medical information secure and confidential.

Wear a face covering and wear it correctly

For now, Harvard’s masking requirement remains in place, and all in our community are required to wear masks indoors, regardless of vaccination or booster status. Consider wearing a KN-95 mask or a cloth mask over a surgical mask to ensure good filtration and a good seal.

Wash Your Hands Often

Use soap and water with 20 seconds of rubbing, or use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer. Do this before and after touching anything that needs to be touched by other people, and before eating, drinking, or touching your face or face covering.
