Coronavirus Information
After careful consideration and in alignment with the current guidance from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the New Jersey Department of Health, we are transitioning our approach to managing COVID-19 on campus. Effective immediately, we will treat COVID-19 in a manner similar to other respiratory-related viruses.
This means that several protocols, including contact tracing, quarantining, and the requirement for clearance from student health services to return to campus, will no longer be required. Instead, we encourage all members of our university community to remain vigilant and follow the CDC’s guidelines for preventing the spread of respiratory illnesses.
-
In light of updated federal and state guidelines on COVID-19, Stockton University strongly recommends but no longer requires employees and students to be vaccinated against the virus, effective Monday, June 19, 2023.
-
Masks are optional but recommended for Stockton students, employees and visitors in campus building, shuttles and other indoor facilities.
-
Faculty may continue to require masks in their classes. Masks may be available at the Campus Center Information Desk.

About Coronavirus
COVID-2019 is a respiratory infection caused by a novel (new) virus that arose from the area of Wuhan, China, in December 2019. Outbreaks of novel virus infections among people are always of public health concern. The risk from these outbreaks depends on characteristics of the virus, including how well it spreads between people, the severity of resulting illness, and the medical or other measures available to control the impact of the virus (for example, vaccine or treatment medications).
For additional information about COVID-19, including how it spreads, symptoms, prevention, treatment and preparedness, please visit the CDC coronavirus website or the New Jersey Department of Health (NJDOH) website.
