    COVID 19 Information

    Effective March 13, 2023 the University of New Mexico no longer requires the COVID-19 primary vaccine series and initial booster for residents and lodging guests. UNM Health and Health Sciences programs and clinical areas will continue to maintain their COVID-19 vaccine requirements. UNM continues to strongly recommend that the Lobo community remain up to date with vaccinations, stay at home if sick, and follow CDC guidelines for all COVID-19 matters.

    Additional Information

    • Payments made for interns by universities other than UNM are payable via credit/debit/p-card and are due upon receipt of invoice in order to reserve a room. Because universities can take a longer time to make payments, we recommend you arrange for your university to reimburse you directly for your housing charges so you can make a timely payment and reserve your room.
    • Interns must abide by all visitor policies as specified in the Intern Policies and Guidelines.
    • All mail and packages must be addressed to your assigned SRC mailbox. No mail or packages received through a mail service can be delivered to your residence hall.

     

    We are truly excited to be your host for the summer! Please feel free to email lodging@unm.edu or call RLSH Conference Services at 505‐277-2660 with any questions you might have.
