The MMR vaccines are good for life, the Tetanus-Diphtheria have to be taken every 10 years, Meningitis every 5 years and the TB Skin Test must be taken within 6 months of registration.

The State of Louisiana requires any one attending school in Louisiana to submit this documentation in order to attend school in Louisiana. If you are unable to obtain a copy from your previous school or family physician you will have to retake the required immunizations. (MMR's, Tetanus, Meningitis, TB Skin Test)

New entrants, transfer students or former returning students who have been accepted to Xavier University of Louisiana, are automatically placed on "medical hold" until you satisfy the immunization and tuberculosis screening requirements. Only after satisfying all of the requirements will your medical hold be removed. At this point, you will then be able to register for classes.

Medically cleared means you have completed and submitted all required immunizations and tuberculosis screening requirements to Student Health Services.
