Immunization Requirements

MMR Vaccination

According to Oregon State Law, students are required to show proof of receiving two doses of the MMR (measles, mumps, and rubella) vaccine. These vaccines must have been administered at least 28 days apart and after the student is 12 months of age. Effective Fall 2019, every full-time, part-time, graduate, and undergraduate student born on or after January 1, 1957, must provide these dates along with their immunization record or  acceptable proof of immunity (see list below). 

Acceptable proof of immunity:

• You were born before January 1, 1957
• You received a MMR titer and the report indicates that you are immune.
• You have a signed physician or nurse practitioner statement indicating you had the disease and what date that occurred.
• You have a signed physician or nurse practitioner statement that verifies you have a medical reason for not receiving the immunization (e.g., anaphylactic reaction to eggs, immune-compromised state, pregnancy, etc.).
• You are claiming a non-medical exemption and have received a Vaccine Education Certificate.

This information can be uploaded through the student portal. This information must be uploaded directly by the student. Any information sent directly to the Health & Counseling Center will not be uploaded to the student's portal.

A registration hold will be placed on a students account if this information is not uploaded 2 weeks prior to registration for the following semester.
