Immunization Compliance is required for all students attending Montclair State University. If students do not have the required immunizations, holds may be placed on their account and prevent them from registering for classes, accessing transcripts or obtaining their diploma. Requirements change depending on the age of the student, if they are dorming on campus, and whether or not they are considered a full-time student. Please Note: Make sure to discuss with your student’s pediatrician as your student may or may not already have most of the immunization requirements. Your student’s high school nurse may also have a copy. Learn More About Immunizations!
