The University of Iowa will host a vaccination clinic for UI students in the coming week, providing the Pfizer vaccine for those who still need it.

The vaccination clinic will take place from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. each day on Wednesday and Thursday in the Iowa Memorial Union (IMU) main lounge.

Students who wish to be vaccinated must first complete an online COVID-19 immunization survey. After completion of the survey, students will receive an email with directions on how to sign up for a time slot to be vaccinated during the clinic.

Student Health will hold a second vaccination clinic at the IMU on Thursday, May 13, and Friday, May 14, to provide the second dose of the Pfizer vaccine and will assist students with scheduling their follow up appointment immediately after they receive their first dose. School officials remind students to consider their class and final exam schedule when making the appointments.

If they can’t come during finals week, Student Health will have appointments available in the Westlawn Building on Newton Road during the following week (May 16–21).

The vaccine will be provided free of charge.

In order to further encourage students to consider getting a COVID-19 vaccine, the university is now offering a one-time $10 Iowa City Downtown District gift card.
