Students and staff planning to live in University ofToronto residences will need to have two shots of a COVID-19 vaccine and at least one booster dose before moving in this September.

The university says it recently reinstated the vaccination requirement for students and employees living in its residences.

The university stopped requiring proof of vaccination for those attending classes in person on May 1. It also gradually lifted its mask mandate in its indoor spaces.
