Meningitis Vaccination Requirement
Texas Senate Bill 1107 passed in May 2011, requires that new HCC students and former HCC students returning after an absence of at least one fall or spring semester who are under the age of 30 are required to present a physician-signed certificate showing they have been vaccinated against bacterial meningitis. The immunization must be administered at least 10 calendar days before the start date of your classes and must have been received within the last five years.
As of Spring 2012, all students will be prevented from enrolling in PeopleSoft unless they have met one of the above requirements mentioned above or qualify for an exemption. New pages and processes have been created and provided to campus users to insure that HCC is in compliance. For additional information: New Meningitis Vaccination Requirement
