Published

Just about a year early here, but I wanted to create a thread for Fall 2019 applicants. This is my first time joining a nursing forum; so, let's give it a shot.

It seems like if you're 22 years old or older, you are not required to get the meningitis vaccine? Has anyone got theirs done?

My high school required it so I got mine done back then, and I think a lot of Texas school and colleges require it. I think it has to do with the fact that bacterial meningitis is spread among people who live in close quarters like dorm rooms. I guess they don’t require it for people 22 and older because you’re probably not living in a dorm? Also I think it’s more of a general institution/state requirement than a CON requirement. The website says if you’re old enough you don’t need to get it or file for exemption.

That's correct, I don't live in the dorm. Thank you for the insight, hopefully, i don't need it.

I emailed the school to make sure. And yes, when you’re 22 or older you don’t have to get it.
