COVID 18-29 YEARS

COVID vaccination if you are a student


Most students will receive their vaccine appointment during the summer holidays.

If you are a student and you're registered with a GP practice near your term-time address, the appointment letter will be sent there. However, by registering for your vaccination online, you'll receive your appointment details wherever you are through SMS or email.


If you're spending the summer at home or in a different health board area, you need to phone the helpline to change your appointment location.


For example, if you're a student attending the University of Aberdeen and you're registered with a GP there, you'll be given an appointment in Aberdeen. However, if you're spending the summer back home in Glasgow, you should register online to receive your appointment by SMS or email. After you receive your appointment, you can contact the helpline and ask to have the appointment changed to a location in Glasgow.

Changing the date, time and location of your appointment within the same health board area can be done online.
