Student Immunization Requirements

Public Health Law 2165 requires that all full- and part-time students who were born on or after January 1, 1957, must present proof of immunization against measles, mumps, and rubella in order to register, attend classes, or use University facilities. The Newmark J-School is required to bar registration or administratively withdraw students who do not comply. Students administratively withdrawn incur full tuition liability. A copy of Public Health Law 2165 may be found in all Student Affairs offices. Specific questions should be directed to the Office of the Vice President for Student Affairs at the Graduate Center.

In addition, Public Health Law 2167 requires that all college and university students enrolled for at least six semester hours return a Meningococcal Meningitis Vaccination Response Form before they may register. All matriculated students (both new and continuing) should have received a form by mail. Additional forms are available in the Wellness Center, Room 6422 of The Graduate Center and online https://www.gc.cuny.edu/CUNY_GC/media/CUNY- Graduate-Center/PDF/Forms/MeningitisResponseForm.pdf?ext=.pdf
