Immunization Requirements

Gallaudet University follows the District of Columbia Immunization Law 38-502 and requires immunizations on all students under 26 years of age.

Proof of Immunity/Titers is required if you do not have any vaccine records.

*DC regulation provides an exemption for students signing a waiver that reviews the dangers of meningococcal disease and indicates the vaccination has been declined. The meningococcal information and waiver are available. 

Reccomended Vaccines:

• Flu (influenza) 
• COVID-19 Vaccine
• Human Papilloma Virus (HPV)
• Hepatitis A

Students that are 26 years of age and older are not required to submit proof of immunization status. However, they are required to submit the SHS Health Form to Student Health Services. 

Any questions can be directed to the SHS Front Desk through your Patient Portal.
