IMMUNIZATION REQUIREMENTS
New York State Public Health Law 2165 requires all college students registering for six or more
credits in a degree-granting program to provide immunization documentation for Measles (Rubeola),
Mumps, and Rubella (German Measles) prior to registration. Students born before January 1, 1957 are
exempt. Failure to comply with the state immunization law will result in denial of registration
privileges.
New York State Public Health Law 2167 requires institutions, including colleges and
universities, to distribute information about Meningococcal disease and vaccination to all students
registered for six or more credits, whether they live on or off campus. All students registered for
six or more credits are required to decide whether or not to be immunized for Meningitis and to
provide formal confirmation of their decision.
All documentation regarding immunization requirements must be sent directly to the NYU Student
Health Center. For more information and to ensure that you have provided proper documentation for
immunizations and meningitis, contact the
NYU Student Health Center.
Non-compliance will impact your ability to register for classes.
