Health
Requirements
Boston
University is concerned about the health
and wellness of its entire student community.
To this end, the University requires that
every incoming student (freshman, transfer,
or graduate) have a physical examination
by a licensed practitioner and be immunized
against the following common communicable
diseases; measles, mumps, rubella (MMR),
tetanus, hepatitis-B, and (bacterial) meningitis.
The Commonwealth of Massachusetts
requires that all full-time undergraduate
and graduate students, all full-time and
part-time health science students, and any
full-time or part-time international students
submit proof of immunization. You can find
the state requirements summarized here.
The “Student Information,
Medical History and Physical Report”
or “Health Form," available on
the Boston University Student
Health Services web site, outlines the
requirements. When completing the form,
please be sure to include immunization dates
as well as the signature of your health
care provider. This information should then
be returned to:
Student Health Services
Boston University
881 Commonwealth Avenue, West
Boston, MA 02215
You may also fax the information to (617)
353-7224 or (617)353-3557.
