Exemptions to the COVID-19 Vaccine Requirements
To request an exemption to the COVID-19 Vaccine and/or booster requirement a student may submit a request for:
- Medical Exemption: Students must have a duly licensed health care provider certify in writing (using
the SUNY Orange COVID-19 Medical Exemption Form by emailing the vpss@sunyorange.edu for the link) that the COVID-19 Vaccination may
be detrimental to the student’s health. The college shall provide reasonable accommodations
to those students whose medical condition(s) contraindicates COVID-19 Vaccination
so long as the failure to be vaccinated does not prevent the student from otherwise
fulfilling the programmatic or curricular requirements of their academic program.
- Religious Exemption: Students who hold genuine and sincere religious beliefs which are contrary to COVID-19 Vaccination may qualify for an exemption. Students requesting a religious exemption must submit a written statement (using the SUNY Orange COVID-19 Medical Exemption Form by emailing the vpss@sunyorange.edu for the link) that explains how receiving the COVID-19 Vaccination conflicts with the their sincere religious belief or practice and how not receiving the COVID-19 Vaccination will not otherwise prevent the student’s completion of their programmatic or curricular requirements of the academic program. General philosophical or moral objections to such vaccine shall not suffice as the basis for a religious exemption. The statement must be written in the student’s own words.
