St. Cloud State University’s goal is to protect the health and safety of our students, faculty, and staff while our students are able to realize their educational goals. With your help of getting vaccinated or a booster shot, staying home if you’re feeling ill, and testing if you meet the MDH testing recommendations, we can provide a safe and regular schedule of operations and activities for our students.
