Spring Registration and the Vaccine Mandate
All students are eligible to enroll in online classes for the spring semester. (Only) students with a verified vaccine record on file in MyGateway or students with an approved exemption may take classes on-campus as well.
 
 The mandate went into effect on November 1, but students and employees are still encouraged to upload their records to gain compliance if they have not done so already. Free testing is now required through the fall semester for students and employees who are not in compliance with the mandate. More information is available on the Safety First page.
 
Fullerton College continues to require compliance with all Health and Safety Protocols for being on-site. This includes appropriate physical distancing as defined by the CDC, and facial coverings that cover your nose and mouth. The COVID-19 pandemic continues to fluctuate, requiring constant monitoring and flexibility. Thank you for your continued resiliency and resourcefulness during these times.
