Immunizations
By Massachusetts State Regulations (105 CMR 220.600), students must have documentation of required vaccines or proof of immunity through antibody blood titers before coming to campus.
All three-quarter and full-time students must report this information to the Health Center through our secure patient portal. A registration hold will be placed on all students with incomplete records.
For New Students
We recommend reading our page for new students and their families for more specific information and instructions.
Getting Immunizations at the Health Center
Occasionally a student is unable to complete a vaccination series before arriving on campus. We are able to help you complete immunizations and perform screening for Tuberculosis.
Covid-19 and Flu Vaccines
- Covid-19 seasonality has not yet been determined by the Center for Disease Control (CDC). We anticipate the annual Covid-19 vaccine will be available in early Fall.
- Flu season starts in the fall, usually peaks in January or February, with outbreaks occurring through May. Approximately 5% to 20% of U.S. residents get sick each year. Vaccines are available at the Health Center for all eligible graduate and undergraduate students.
Communication for seasonal vaccine clinics are sent to students via our Electronic Health Record (EHR).
