To find an open appointment for a COVID-19 vaccine in your area at clinics or drug stores, you can also visit the New Jersey Vaccine Finder website. The vaccine finder site was modeled after the original vaccine finder website created by volunteers with Vaccinate NJ in partnership with Planet Princeton and a group of Princeton University students.

Princeton University no longer offers COVID-19 vaccine clinics due to how readily available the vaccine is and the extremely high percentage of fully vaccinated students and employees on campus, according to the university’s website.
