Registration » Click to view available appointments
If you are eligible and would like to receive a free vaccination, please register for an appointment through Wake Forest Baptist Health. Appointments are limited and only available time slots will be visible on the registration site. Walk-in appointments will not be available; you must register for an appointment in advance.
If you are unable to register for an appointment, you may also add your name to the waitlist for same-day cancellations. A WFU representative will contact you if any same-day appointments unexpectedly become available. If you are able to secure a vaccine appointment, please remove your name from the waitlist by visiting the waitlist form link again and editing your response.
Preparing for Your Appointment
- Pre-register in CVMS: Prior to your appointment, you may receive an email from nccvms@dhhs.nc.gov asking you to pre-register in the North Carolina COVID-19 Vaccine Management System (CVMS). Pre-registering in CVMS will help us provide a more streamlined process during your appointment.
If you need additional help registering in CVMS, watch this short tutorial video or review the CVMS user guide (registration instructions begin on page 9). If you do not receive an email to pre-register, you will be able to register on-site the day of your appointment.
- Work Considerations: Staff may be eligible to use Release Time for appointments; you should communicate with your supervisor about your plans. You may want to request Paid Time Off (PTO) following your appointment in case you experience side effects.

Faculty, staff, and affiliated employees may contact the Faculty and Staff Clinic at (743) 223-4217 if they need help obtaining an appointment, registering in the CVMS system, or have additional COVID-19 vaccine questions.
Even after receiving the vaccine, everyone should continue to practice safety measures, including wearing a mask and social distancing. While the vaccination is not required by Wake Forest, we encourage you to consider this opportunity.
Sincerely,
Wake Forest University Human Resources
