Submitting proof of full COVID-19 vaccine – LIFTED

Proof of full COVID-19 vaccination is no longer required for students and employees to be onsite at the main campus or education centers.  Students no longer need to submit proof of full COVID-19 vaccination to register for onsite courses. 

Palomar College continues to encourage full COVID-19 vaccination for students and employees to mitigate the spread of COVID-19. There are a number of sources for COVID-19 vaccinations and COVID-19 booster shots. Below is information on vaccination resources.

  • The San Diego County Public Health website contains information on appointments and locations of vaccination super stations, smaller centers and pods.
  • The MyTurnCA is the site that you will use to schedule an appointment at any of the Department of Health funded vaccination sites.

If you have health insurance with Kaiser, vaccine information can be found at kp.org/covidvaccine.  The Kaiser appointment line is Appointment Center at 1-833-KP4CARE, or call the 24/7 recorded message hotline at 1‑855‑550‑0951 (available in English and Spanish) for regular updates.

You may also want to check with your primary care provider to determine if they have vaccines available.

There are many pharmacy and grocery chains offering COVID-19 vaccination appointments.   These sites may have a more flexible schedule of appointments.
