Immunization to measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) is a requirement for all students who attend UNI. To comply with this requirement all students must provide records documenting proof of TWO measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccinations. Please note all the immunization dates must include month, day and year. Your immunization records can be obtained from your:

We also must collect information on the status of student's vaccinations against meningococcal disease. Students can provid both the MMR and Meningitis vaccine on the UNI Health Requirement Immunization Verification Form.

We request that you submit your immunization records as soon as possible.
