Vaccination Requirements:
- Boston College will require guests at all campus athletics events to show proof of full COVID-19 vaccination or proof of a negative COVID-19 PCR test administered within the previous 72 hours.
- The policy was implemented to help safeguard the health and well-being of the general BC community and campus visitors, and aligns with the campus-wide requirement that all faculty, staff, and students be fully vaccinated against COVID-19.
- Children under the age of (12) twelve do not need to provide proof of vaccination or proof of a negative COVID19 test for entry, but they will be required to wear a face covering while attending any Boston College athletics event.
- Attendees (12) twelve years of age and older will be required to present proof of being at least two weeks past receiving a second dose in a two-dose vaccine series (Pfizer or Moderna, or other World Health Organization-approved vaccines), or a single dose of the Johnson & Johnson vaccine. A CDC COVID-19 Vaccination Record Card or a photocopy or mobile photo of the card is acceptable. For home football games, guests will need to present proof at one of a dozen Welcome Tents adjacent around Alumni Stadium or at designated parking areas. Once proof is verified, guests will receive a non-transferable wristband for entrance into the stadium.

A test result must be in the form of written medical documentation (paper or electronic copy) and the documentation must include: test result, type of test, entity issuing the result, and the specimen collection date.

  - You may also show your QR code at each event entrance, though visiting a screening tent in advance will limit your wait time.
- Guests can visit screening locations on campus the day before all Saturday football games to show proof of vaccination/negative PCR test and receive a bracelet. Hours of operation are from 9 a.m. - 4 p.m. Screening locations will be available beginning at 9 a.m. day of game for Friday games.
