Health History
Prior to Registration at SMU
- MEASLES, MUMPS & RUBELLA:
All students born after 1957 must provide proof of immunity to Measles, Mumps & Rubella. A physical exam is not required. Acceptable proof is considered to be the following:
- Record of two immunizations since age 1.
- Documentation of Measles & Mumps disease
- Protective titer of Rubella.
-
TETANUS: All students should have had a Tetanus booster within the last 10 years
-
TB (TUBERCULOSIS): All students need to complete the questions on the Health Form to see if a TB test (within the last 6 months) is required.
The above documentation may be from a Public Health Clinic, a Physician or a Transcript from a School Record.
Students who are lacking any of the required immunizations may come to the Health Center upon arrival at SMU to receive necessary immunizations. Immunization records must be complete BEFORE students will be allowed to register for classes. A HOLD will be placed on a student's access account for non-compliance.
MENINGITIS
Required for all new students who are under the age of 30. New Texas state law is effective starting January 1, 2012. The meningitis immunization must have been received within the preceding 5 years, or a booster shot is required. A "new student" is defined as any student who was not enrolled in SMU classes the previous semester.
