All records must have the student’s legal name, date of birth, 花季传媒 ID number and a phone number where the student can be reached with questions. All records must be submitted in English.
Students who do not submit complete Immunization Records will not be able to register for classes for the subsequent semester.
Requests for exemption from the immunization requirements for other than medical reasons may be recognized by 花季传媒 based on religious grounds only. Requests for exemption must be made in writing, in advance of the start of classes and signed by the student.
Requests for exemption from immunization requirements based on medical grounds must be accompanied by a written statement from the student’s healthcare provider indicating the nature and duration of the medical condition which contraindicates an immunization, along with the specific vaccine identified as detrimental to the student’s health, certifying pregnancy or suspected pregnancy, or verifying that the student is currently completing the course of all required immunizations. Medical exemptions expire when the medical condition(s) contraindicating immunization change in a manner which permits immunization.
All requests for exemption will be reviewed and decided by the medical director. Students should submit a Request for Exemption to the Immunization Requirement and any accompanying documentation to depauwhealth@hendricks.org by August 1 for students matriculating in the fall and January 1 for students enrolling for spring. Approved exemptions will be kept on file at the 花季传媒 Health Wellness Center.
Students holding exemptions may be excluded from campus activities or instructed to leave campus in the event of an outbreak – on or near campus – of any of the vaccine-preventable diseases until the outbreak is over.
