Immunization Recommendations

Many adolescents and adults are under-immunized, missing opportunities to protect themselves against diseases such as Measles, Hepatitis B, influenza, and pneumococcal disease. The Auraria Immunization Office works closely with public health agencies and the three campus entities to improve and sustain immunization coverage so that the campus community can be protected.

Although documentation of MMR is the only immunization requirement to attend college, it is requested that you provide dates of additional immunizations with the proof of immunization that you file.

You may not have protection against diseases that are now preventable through Tetanus Diphtheria and Pertussis (Tdap), Polio (IPV), Meningitis, Varicella (Chickenpox) and Human Papilloma Virus (HPV) (Gardasil vaccine against cervical cancer), so please click on the links below to read the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommendations for adult immunizations.

Students can obtain immunizations from their community medical provider or from the Health Center at Auraria's Immunization Office. Community prices for MMR vaccine and blood titer tests for immunity may vary widely from one office to the next.

The Health Center at Auraria has established special pricing in an effort to control costs to students needing immunization services.

There are no additional charges for administering shots or drawing blood and no office visit charges will be assessed for routine immunization services at the Health Center at Auraria.
  
Please be aware that community medical providers often assess charges in addition to the cost of the vaccine or blood draw.
