De La Cruz, MSHTM Abstract: While COVID-19 has startled the world in many ways, it is said to have had a significant impact on education, which was probably best equipped for a quick shift to a digital environment. This study aims to determine the status of vaccination among hospitality and tourism management students including their preferences when it comes to learning and discussions. A survey instrument was made available via Google Forms with a total of 801 respondents. The results revealed that majority of the respondents were already fully vaccinated with Moderna as their brand of vaccine. Also, the results show that the majority of the respondents will still pursue their enrollment for the coming semester. However, only forty-nine percent of the respondents were willing to attend face-to-face classes. The paper recommends further encouragement for the students to be willing to have their vaccination shot and that the institution must create a sound flexible learning modality guidelines that considers all of its stakeholders.
