Measles, Mumps, Rubella & Hepatitis B

Effective with the Fall 2004 semester, all new students, (including transfer students and graduate students), are required to comply with Section 3244 of Oklahoma Statutes Title 70.  Students can meet this requirement by completing the OSU Immunization and Health History form and returning it with the necessary documentation to University Health Services.  Below is a summary of the new requirements:

 Measles, Mumps, Rubella, (MMR):  All students born after 1957 are required to provide documentation of having received two vaccinations for measles, mumps and rubella.  As an option, a student may provide laboratory evidence of antibodies that indicate sufficient immunity.  You can read more about measles and the MMR vaccine here.

 Hepatitis B:  All new students are required to have completed a Hepatitis B series.  You can read more about hepatitis B and the hepatitis B vaccine here.

Students who have a medical, religious or personal objection to these vaccinations must complete and return the Certificate of Exemption.  This form can be downloaded here, or obtained from University Health Services.  Please note, in the case of a public health emergency, students claiming this exemption may be barred from campus and from attending classes.
