Immunization Compliance

Pursuant to Florida Board of Governors Regulation 6.001(9), prior to registration, each student accepted for admission at Florida Atlantic University must submit immunization documents to demonstrate compliance.  Florida Atlantic University requires documented proof of immunizations to Measles and Rubella. In addition, pursuant to Florida Board of Governors Regulations 6.007, effective July 1, 2008, all new matriculating students must also provide documentation of vaccinations against Meningococcal Meningitis and Hepatitis B or provide a signed waiver for each declined vaccination.

FAU has partnered with Medicat to verify student immunization records.

Immunization Hold

Every student receives an immunization hold, which prevents registration for in-person classes until proof of immunization is provided.

To submit your immunization records, please complete the following steps:

It will take up to 5 business days for your documents to be reviewed, and a further day for the immunization hold to be removed.

Questions about immunization compliance should be directed to immunizationadmin@health.fau.edu
