Coronavirus Response
With the current high rate of contagiousness and infection from Omicron, we have made the decision to conduct all January classes remotely and to require, with limited exceptions, all employees without essential on-campus duties during this period to work from home through January 28th. For more information regarding the start of the spring semester, see this message from President Sparks.
The Cooper Union requires all students, faculty, and staff, except for those with a medical or religious exemption, to be vaccinated with an FDA-authorized or World Health Organization (WHO)-listed vaccine and boostered by no later than January 28, 2022. For more, see Vaccine Requirements for the Academic Year 2021 - 2022
For access to the campus buildings all vaccinated faculty, staff, and students must use the CUSafe app, available for Android and iOS devices. See Announcing Cooper Union's Vaccine Passport.
Weekly COVID-19 testing is also still required for admittance to campus buildings. Testing is provided on-site each weekday. For more information and weekly schedule, see the testing protocols.
All guests will be required to show proof of vaccination and wear a mask while indoors on campus. See the guest policy.
Everyone, regardless of vaccination status, must wear a mask at all times inside the buildings.
