Marquette University Immunization and Tuberculosis Screening Policy
In the interests of keeping individual students and the campus community healthy, all newly admitted or readmitted students at Marquette University — undergraduate, graduate and professional — are required to provide proof of certain immunizations and to complete a screening instrument for tuberculosis.
Proof of immunization, and/or disease as applicable, is required for MMR (Measles, Mumps, Rubella), Varicella (chicken pox) and Tetanus/Diphtheria. The information should be provided in advance of coming to campus by completing an Immunization History form and a TB Screening questionnaire that will be included in your acceptance packet or sent under a separate mailing by your college or by the Student Health Service. The forms are available on the Student Health Service website at: www.marquette.edu/shs. The information must be submitted to the Student Health Service, where it will be retained in confidence.
If a student fails to submit the required documentation within 30 days of the start of the student's first term at Marquette, a registration "hold" will be placed on future registrations. The hold will be removed once the Immunization History form and TB Screening questionnaire has been received by the Student Health Service and the immunization requirements have been met.
All students admitted to the Law School will be sent further information about this requirement after paying tuition deposits.
