Immunizations Requirements

Student Health Services promotes the health and safety of the entire FLCC community, including our student body. You must provide the following immunization information to attend in-person classes and participate in student life activities.

Required Vaccination Information

If you plan to register for an in-person course, participate in on-campus activities, or live at The Suites at Laker Landing, you must submit the medical information listed below. Check with your physician or high school to obtain official immunization records.

• Measles, Mumps, and Rubella Proof of Immunity — typically combined into a vaccine called MMR. Proof of 2 MMR vaccinations satisfies this requirement. Serological evidence of immunity (titers) to measles, mumps, and rubella are only accepted with certified lab results. Proof of honorable discharge from the armed services within ten years of your college application also meets the NYS requirement for MMR and Meningitis.


• Meningococcal Meningitis Response Form — typically given as a series of vaccinations (MenACWY and MenB) starting when kids are 11 or 12 years old. You must either submit meningitis vaccination documentation or sign a form acknowledging that you understand the risks and choose not obtain immunization against meningococcal/meningitis disease.
