Required Immunizations
In accordance with North Dakota University System policy, the University of North Dakota's Student Health Services (SHS) oversees and executes immunization compliance for the UND campus.
All students enrolled at UND must provide documentation of required immunizations, or request an approved exemption.
Failure to comply with the immunization requirements will result in a hold on your account, restricting you from registering for classes for the following semester.
Required Immunization Documentation
- 2 doses of MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella)
- 1 dose of meningitis vaccination given after the 16th birthday (if age 21 or younger)
- Accepted brands of meningitis vaccine include Menactra, Menveo, and MenQuadfi
- 2 doses of MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella)
- 1 dose of meningitis vaccination given after the 16th birthday (if age 21 or younger)
- Accepted brands of meningitis vaccine include Menactra, Menveo, and MenQuadfi
- Complete the TB (Tuberculosis) Risk Assessment electronically on your MyHealth Patient Portal.
- To review TB incidence, see the World Health Organization Global Tuberculosis Report
How to Submit Immunization Documentation
Option 1: Electronic (Preferred)
Once you have claimed your UND account, you may access your MyHealth Patient Portal to enter your immunizations and upload immunization information electronically. Use your UND username and password to log in.
Option 2: Fax
If you are unable to enter and upload your immunization information online, you can fax your immunization records to 701.777.4835.
Allowable Exemptions
Students enrolled solely in distance learning courses; immunization is contraindicated by a medical condition; or the student's belief precludes participation in an immunization program may request an exemption.
To request an exemption, log into the UND MyHealth Patient Portal and complete the SHS Immunization Exemption Request Form or print Immunization Exemption Request Form and submit to Student Health Services for approval.
Requesting an exemption does carry risk. In the event of an outbreak of a communicable disease in which immunization is required (see above for required immunizations), Student Health Services staff and/or the local public health officer will determine exclusions from campus and campus activities until the danger of the epidemic is over.
