Get Shots

Anyone planning foreign travel should begin immunizations several months prior to departure. They are given by the University Health Services from 9:30 to 11 a.m. and 2 to 3:30 p.m. Monday through Friday.

Members of the University may obtain International Certificates of Vaccination and an approved stamp from the UHS.

In addition to the required smallpox vaccination, the U.S. Public Health Services recommends immunization against typhoid, tetanus, and polioomyelitis for all international travelers.

Information on other required or recommended immunizations for specific countries is available at the UHS.
