Required Immunization

The following list of vaccinations and immunizations are required prior to the first day of new student orientation. Each student must provide the Program (through the American Data Bank Immunization Tracking System) proof of compliance with Program student health requirements which include the listed vaccinations and immunizations. Proof includes documentation of series schedule and antibody titers. The costs are borne by the student.

These health requirements are based in part on the CDC Guidelines for Health Care Workers which may change periodically:

• Hepatitis B
• MMR (Measles, Mumps, and Rubella)
• Varicella (chickenpox)
• Tdap (Tetanus, diphtheria, pertussis)
• PPD status annually
• Influenza annually

Each student must update their PPD status and Statement of Good Health every 12 months, or more often if required by a clinical site to which the student is assigned. The above information may be released to third parties to facilitate student clinical placements.

Further vaccinations may be required if recommended by the CDC.
