New Student Information
Vaccines significantly reduce the risk of becoming seriously ill from or spreading common diseases. They’re the best way to protect yourself and your community from certain preventable diseases. We require all students to provide documentation of immunization against measles, mumps and rubella (MMR); and chicken pox (Varicella). For students living on campus, we also require vaccination for Meningitis ACYW (meningococcal conjugate vaccine). Click here to view our immunization policy.
