COMPLIANCE WITH NC IMMUNIZATION LAW

North Carolina state law requires anyone entering college to present a certificate of immunization that documents their compliance with all required immunizations. The Immunization Department gladly accepts these records for review and serves to assist UNC Charlotte students with questions about becoming compliant with this law. Once complete records are received, the Immunization Department documents this compliance for the University Office of the Registrar.  Records are due at the time of your admission to the University and prior to your arrival to New Student Orientation. The statute applies to all students except students residing off-campus and registering for any combination of:

• Off-campus courses (distance education program)
• Evening courses (classes beginning after 5 p.m.)
• Weekend courses
• No more than four day (before 5 pm) credit hours in on-campus courses
  • If taking 5 or more credit hours before 5 pm immunization records are to be submitted

*Enrollment in only online classes does not qualify you as a distance  
education student.

*While your State or Country of origin may have different immunization requirements, you must comply with North Carolina laws and UNC Charlotte requirements*

Immunization records are NOT automatically transferred from your high school or previous college or university.

All required vaccines are available at Student Health. Charges associated with each vaccine.
