During the Fall 2025 semester, the Public Health Promotion Center (PHPC), in close collaboration with the Elaine Marieb College of Nursing and University Health Services (UHS), is once again bringing essential vaccines directly to the UMass Amherst community. The clinics, a proud and longstanding partnership between UMass Public Health and nursing students, offer a hands-on learning experience while serving campus health needs. 

Flu and COVID-19 vaccines are available at mobile clinics across campus, making it easy to protect yourself and others during respiratory virus season. The PHPC is following the latest, evidence-based recommendations from the Massachusetts Department of Public Health to ensure it provides vaccines to our community. 

These walk-up clinics, which do not require an appointment, are designed for convenience. UMass family members are also welcome, but children must be over 12 years old. Most Massachusetts-based insurance plans are accepted, with the exception of Medicare and Medicaid. For specific insurance questions, visit the UHS website

The mobile clinic schedule is available on the UMass EHS website
