Immunization Requirements/ Recommendations

Based on The Centers for Disease Control and the American College Health Association guidelines, Cornell College requires all students to provide documentation that meets one of the following criteria for measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR)

  • proof of two MMR immunizations
  • proof of natural immunity through documentation of a physician diagnosed disease
  • a positive serum titer may be substituted in place of vaccination documentation

If any student comes to college without documented proof of proper MMR immunization,
their registration will be cancelled.
No other immunizations are required for admittance; however, it is highly recommended that students consider the following vaccines:

  • Meningitis
  • Hepatitis B
  • HPV 
  • Chicken Pox 
  • Tetanus

Please consult your clinician regarding these vaccines. Some of these vaccines are also available at the Cornell College Student Health Clinic.
