103 - Immunization Requirements

The purpose of this policy is to establish the requirement regarding the documentation requirements of immunizations.

Minnesota law (MS 135A.14) requires all students enrolled in more than one on-campus credit-based course in a term and born after December 31, 1956, to provide evidence of immunization for measles, rubella, mumps, diphtheria and tetanus. Students who graduated from a Minnesota high school in 1997 or later and transfer students from another Minnesota State College and University are exempt. Some programs may have additional requirements.
