Common Registration Questions Related to SLCC’s Vaccine Requirement

As registration has opened for Spring Semester, a few questions have come up regarding SLCC’s student vaccination requirement.

What if I am not fully vaccinated, but I’m in the process of getting this done?

You can upload your current vaccination card and when you are fully vaccinated, you can update your vaccination card by going to the Campus Life tab in MySLCC and under Health & Wellness select COVID submit vaccination status link.

Do you have more information on exemptions?

Examples of exemptions include:

Personal – Any personal belief that would prevent you from being vaccinated (i.e. philosophical, scientific, moral or personal views on vaccinations).

Religious – Any religious belief that would prevent you from being vaccinated. Some people believe that vaccinations conflict with a genuine and sincere religious belief and that the belief is in fact religious, and not based merely on philosophical, scientific, moral, personal or medical opposition to immunizations. For example, some religions do not believe in modern day medicine, so vaccinations or any other type of medicine is not allowable.

Medical – Scenarios include: you have a disease or take medicine that weakens their immune system, you have a severe allergy to a vaccine or an ingredient in it, you have had a serious reaction to a vaccine in the past or you have a medical exemption from a physician.

(Note: The above are examples only and do not include a full comprehensive list.)

I am having issues submitting my vaccination card, what do I do?

Review the COVID Vaccine form instructions and ensure you are following the steps correctly. If you are still experiencing issues, please contact the HelpDesk at 801-957-5555 for assistance.

How long will it take for the vaccination registration hold to be removed?

It usually takes 5 to 10 minutes, but during peak registration times, it can take up to 20 minutes. Please make sure to refresh your browser if you are using Banner Registration. If you are using College Scheduler, please sign out completely and then sign back in to register.

The Center for Prior Learning Receives an Honorable Mention

Today, SLCC's Credit for Prior Learning department received an Honorable Mention from the Council for Adult and Experiential Learning (CAEL ) and the Western Interstate Commission for Higher Education for its intentional approach and for expanding student options to receive credit for prior learning. Credit for Prior Learning (CPL) allows students to obtain college credit for knowledge and skills acquired outside of the traditional academic environment. This is exceptionally beneficial for adult learners, who, according to CAEL, have a 17% higher chance of graduating compared to those adults who don’t earn credits through prior learning programs. The CPL department at SLCC was created in 2020 and since then the volume of students served has grown as the department continues to expand. To be eligible for CPL, students must be working towards a degree, certificate, or apprenticeship. Director of Credit for Prior Learning at SLCC, Andrea Tipton, mentioned fee...
