HEALTH REQUIREMENTS

There are health requirements with which the student must comply prior to beginning classes. These requirements are not for the purpose of limiting admission, but are to promote a healthy student body.

1. Complete Student Health form, including immunization records.
2. State Law requires each postsecondary institution in Tennessee provide students with information concerning hepatitis B and meningococcal meningitis infections. All students must complete a Meningococcal Meningitis and Hepatitis B Immunization Health History Form.
3. Recommend TB skin test or assessment before enrollment.

PLEASE COMPLETE THESE AND RETURN TO THE STUDENT HEALTH SERVICES PRIOR TO BEGINNING CLASSES.

Special programs of study such as nursing may have additional requirements.

The Health Service also strongly recommends proof of a tetanus booster immunization within the last 10 years.
