Immunization Policy
Students
born after January 1, 1957 must provide documented proof that they have
received two rubeola (measles), two rubella (German measles) and two mumps
vaccinations OR two combination MMR (measles, mumps and rubella.)*
Students born before January 1, 1957 must provide documented proof that they
have received one rubeola (measles), one rubella (German measles) and one mumps
vaccination OR one combination MMR (measles, mumps and rubella.)*
*An alternative option for individuals who have had all three diseases or
cannot provide an immunization record is to provide written evidence of
positive laboratory tests (known as a blood titer test for immunity). Test
results must reflect positive immunity to measles, mumps and rubella and if
results prove less than positive you must provide evidence of re-immunization.
Medical, Religious and personal exemptions are allowed by law. Students
who submit exemptions are subject to the prevailing regulations governing
quarantines in case of outbreaks and university policies related forfeiture of
tuition and fees.
Students can obtain immunizations from their community
medical provider or from the Health Center at Auraria's Immunization Office.
Community prices for MMR vaccine and blood titer tests for immunity may vary widely
from one office to the next.
