Mandatory Vaccination Requirement for Students in Fall 2024

Students are required to submit a Health History form and documentation of all MICA required vaccinations by July 31. 

REQUIRED immunizations and screening:

1. Tetanus and Diphtheria: Tdap within the last 10 years
2. Measles, mumps, and rubella: vaccination dates (2 doses) or positive blood lab titers
3. Varicella (Chickenpox): vaccination dates (2 doses) or positive blood lab titers
4. Meningococcal Quadrivalent (ACWY) vaccine date (1 dose) or waiver for all students living in on- campus housing. Students will not be allowed to enter the on-campus housing until proof of meningitis vaccination or a medical/religious waiver is received.
5. Tuberculosis Screening (TB): Mandatory tuberculosis screening for all students. If you answer “Yes” to any of the online screening questions, you will need to print off the Tuberculosis Clinical Assessment form and have it completed and  signed by your healthcare provider and reuploaded back into Medicat.   
6. Health History Form:  Provide information regarding medical history, allergies, and medications.

COVID vaccination is no longer required at MICA but is still recommended.

Login to the MICA Medicat Student Health portal , using your MICA credentials, to document, complete, and upload all required health forms and vaccination information.

International students who cannot obtain certain vaccines, such as Tetanus, due to supply shortages in their home country, can email the MICA student health center at studenthealth@mica.edu to request a temporary exemption until arrival in the US. . Students may also request medical and religious exemptions.  The deadline to submit a medical or religious exception request for internal review is Saturday, July 31, 2024.

In the event of a medical emergency, please contact 911 or your local emergency services.
