May 14, 2021 Collin College is offering vaccination clinics for students as well as employees and their family members at different campus locations throughout the summer. Two doses of available vaccines will be offered on a voluntary basis. The vaccine clinics will continue into Fall 2021, pending available opportunities with vaccine clinic providers.

The first vaccination clinic was offered on May 6 at the Collin Higher Education Center. Nearly 300 individuals were vaccinated.

A second vaccination clinic will be held at the Frisco Campus Conference Center, located at 9700 Wade Blvd. The first dose will be offered on Thursday, May 20, and the second dose will be offered on Thursday, June 10. The Pfizer vaccine is now approved for children ages 12-15, and this clinic will be able to accommodate that age group.

Earlier this year the college partnered with the Wylie Fire Department to offer vaccinations for the community at the Wylie Campus Conference Center.
