Immunization

What immunizations are needed for freshmen at Penn state University ?

@optims96 If a student is staying in a PSU dorm, he/she has to have a meningitis shot. If not, one has to sign a waiver when you get there. It’s better to take the shot though, as while meningitis is not common, it is fatal and you never know what could happen.

Thank you for the reply ,apart from meningitis do i have to take any other vaccine?

@optims96 Here’s a snippet from one of PSU Health Services welcome emails:

"Vaccination History & Requirements:

Penn State requires that all students be immunized against measles, mumps and rubella."

So the above is basically the minimum requirement.
