Medical Immunization Records

Medical Immunization Records Heading link

The Illinois Department of Public Health requires that all students living in on-campus housing and born on or after January 1, 1957, entering a post-secondary institution are required to present documented proof of immunity  against the following diseases:

  1. Measles (Rubeola) – two (2) doses at least 28 days apart
  2. Rubella (German Measles) – two (2) doses at least 28 days apart
  3. Mumps – two (2) doses at least 28 days apart
  4. TD (Tetanus and Diphtheria) – three (3) doses required – one (1) within past 10 years
  5. Meningitis – Required for students under age of 22 – Must be given on or after 16th birthday

Note: Students are also responsible for showing documentation for any other immunizations as specified by their colleges whether the student is living in on-Campus Housing or not. These documents must be submitted to the students college, and do not need to be submitted to the Office of Medical Immunization.

Students in on-campus housing who are not properly immunized and have not submitted a written statement of medical or religious exemption are required to undergo immunization within the first term of enrollment. Failure to provide the required proof of immunity shall prevent a student from enrolling in a subsequent term. To prevent a hold from being placed on a student’s account, students must submit the required proof of immunity .
