What immunizations are K-State students required to have?
Kansas Board of Regents policy, effective starting the fall semester of 2006, requires all incoming students residing in university housing at a Regent’s institution be vaccinated for meningitis or sign a waiver declining the vaccination. The Centers for Disease Control and American College Health Association recommend that you consider several immunizations or screenings before entering college. (Tuberculosis screening is required for all students who have lived in a “high risk” foreign country for over 4 months before enrollment at K-State is allowed.) These vaccinations/tests can be obtained from your local physician, health department or Lafene Health Center (call 785.532.6544 for an appointment).
