Proof of Meningitis Vaccine

Texas State law (SB 62) mandates that all entering students under the age of 22 provide a certificate signed by a health care provider or an official immunization record verifying that a student has been vaccinated against bacterial meningitis or has received a booster during the five years preceding admission to the University. Students cannot pre-register for courses without having submitted appropriate medical documentation. Please visit the Health Services website to learn more. Students should email the documentation to healthsvcs@uiwtx.edu with their UIW student ID number, full name and date of birth.
