Meet Immunization
Requirements
Students attending SDSU for only 1 semester are not required to show evidence of compliance with immunization requirements. Students who will attend SDSU for 2 semesters must comply with the following before they will be allowed to register for the second semester.
MEASLES/RUBELLA
If you were born on or after January 1, 1957, you will be required to show proof of immunity to measles, (Rubeola) and rubella (German measles). Submit medical documentation to Student Health Services proving immunity prior to the start of your second semester OR proving that you have started the 3-dose series of hepatitis B vaccine (you may receive the vaccine at Student Health Services or your private medical provider.)
Hepatitis B
Students age 18 or under are also required to provide proof of immunization against hepatitis B. Submit medical documentation to Student Health Services proving immunity prior to the start of your second semester OR demonstrate that you have started the three-dose series of hepatitis vaccine (you may receive the vaccine at Student Health Services or your private medical provider.)
What is adequate proof of prior vaccination?
Medical documentation of prior immunization requires the date, type of vaccination, and a doctor's or nurse's signature, initials or office stamp. School records are not acceptable proof unless a doctor or nurse signs them. Students may also receive vaccines at Student Health Services.
