Immunization Requirements The government of the District of Columbia requires that all students who are under 26 years old have proof of the following: - Two doses against measles, mumps and rubella (MMR vaccine)
- Tetanus/diphtheria booster given within the past ten years
Students who are scheduled to enroll for the DC Fall 2012 semester and who are under the age of 26 as of September 4, 2012 must submit a SAIS immunization form or the equivalent by August 10, 2012. Students entering SAIS DC in Spring 2013 must submit immunization information by January 11, 2013. After these dates, a hold will be placed on your registration record. Please note that incomplete immunizations, invalid dates, or forms which lack a validation stamp and signature will not be processed, and will delay your registration. Students may access the immunization form by clicking here. SAIS will accept an equivalent medical record in lieu of the form as long as it is signed and stamped by a medical provider.
