Vaccines Needed to Achieve Immunization Compliance
The state of Louisiana and Tulane University require students to have proof of immunity for certain diseases. All students taking classes in person at Tulane University are required to provide proof of immunization compliance. Failure to meet these requirements will result in an enrollment hold being placed on your student account, which will bar you from dropping or adding classes.
Fortunately, the Health Center for Student Care offers all required vaccines. You can make an appointment to receive the following vaccines at our clinic:
- Measles, mumps, rubella vaccine (MMR)
