Hi, everyone!
Since the application has opened, I wanted to start a thread for those applying to Roseman University for entry in July 2019.
I look forward to hearing from you guys!

Yes. We were told multiple times if we didn’t have proof of immunization we couldn’t participate in clinical. I believe you can skip flu shot (depending on the hospital) but if you do you have to wear a mask 100% of the time you’re at the hospital during flu season.

If you don't have proof of your vaccinations (either dated medical records or titers) you'll need to get them again. You will have submit proof of all vaccines with dates to the school. Plenty of people were getting them while we were here in Utah. And of course some stuff you have to do every year (flu shot, TB test).
All the vaccines you get for school should be covered by insurance because they're preventative healthcare.

Thank you for your clarification. My immunization records are complete but the gaps between my shots are not within the specified timeframes. Do you think this will be a problem? I already reached out to Roseman, but I haven’t heard anything from them yet. I’m hoping to be able to reach someone tomorrow.

The school is on break the first week of July, which is probably why there's a delayed response.
I don't think the gaps between the shots will matter - if a did, a dr would have restarted your immunization series instead of continuing it. The gaps are to allow a specific minimum amount of time between each round, but they don't have to be given exactly X weeks apart. ?

Hey @paisling!
They got back to me. Apparently, they said that the facilities wouldn’t accept the vaccines as they were administered. They’re requiring me to get titers for Hep A & B. Thank you for your help! ?
