- International and non-resident students, faculty, and staff who have permanent out-of-state or international addresses
- All vaccine recipients must be age 12 or older (Pfizer). The Moderna and Johnson & Johnson vaccines will be available for individuals age 18 and older.
Is there a cost?
No. There is no cost to receive a vaccine and no co-payment is required.
Are appointments necessary?
No, these are walk-in clinics.
If I’ve received my first dose of a two-dose vaccine outside of OU, can I receive my second dose at the OU clinics?
Yes, as long as it has been the appropriate interval for each vaccine (21 days for Pfizer, 28 days for Moderna), you may receive your second dose of that vaccine at the OU clinics. Be sure to bring your COVID-19 vaccination record card with you.
If I get my first dose of Pfizer or Moderna at the OU clinics, will I need to get dose 2 through OU, or can I get it elsewhere?
While we encourage you to get your second dose through OU Health Services, you can make an appointment elsewhere, as long as it is for the same kind of vaccine. Getting your second dose is very important because it gives you the most protection from the virus, including variants.
Student Appreciation and Incentive Program | #OUVaccinates
OU wants to thank our students who are already vaccinated, and incentivize students who are still unvaccinated, with the OU Vaccinates Student Appreciation and Incentive Program launching Monday, Aug. 9, on the Norman campus. Stay tuned for details on how to win big with #OUVaccinates at ou.edu/together/vaccine.
Getting Ready for Your Vaccine:
- Bring a photo ID. Your photo ID, such as your driver’s license or university ID, is used to ensure the dose is being administered to the same person who is in the registration system. Photo IDs from another state or country will be accepted.
- Bring your health insurance card, if you have one. Please note there is no cost to receive the vaccine, and insurance is not required.
- If you are receiving your second dose of a two-dose vaccine, bring your COVID-19 vaccination record card.
- Wear a face mask. Because the clinics are considered a patient setting, masking is required in the OU vaccine clinics. Masks will be provided, or you may bring your own.
Why Get Vaccinated?
COVID-19 Vaccines Are:
- Safe. Millions of people in the United States have received COVID-19 vaccines under the most intense safety monitoring in U.S. history, and over 4 billion doses have been given worldwide.
- Effective. COVID-19 vaccines are highly effective at preventing COVID-19, including variants. Unvaccinated individuals are at the greatest risk of complications if they get infected.
- Helping Us Return to Normal. If you are fully vaccinated, you can resume many of the activities you did before the pandemic.
OU has joined hundreds of colleges and universities across the nation to support the White House-led COVID-19 College Vaccine Challenge. Learn More
