Do I need to provide documentation for immunizations?

Minnesota law (M.S. 135A.14) requires that students provide a statement that they have received appropriate immunization against measles, mumps and rubella (MMR) and diphtheria and tetanus (DT). MMR vaccinations must have been administered after 12 months of age and DT vaccinations must have been administered within ten years of the student first term of enrollment.

  •  Students who were bornbefore1956 are exempt from this law.
  •  Students who graduated from a Minnesota high school 1997 or later are exempt from this law.
  •  Students who graduated from a high school before 1997; or a school located outside of Minnesota (includes other countries)must submit immunization information.
  •  Students were home schooled or earned a G.E.D.must submit immunization information.

This law provides for medical and conscientious exemptions.

New students must submit their immunization information on the Normandale Community College application for admission. Students who need to update or resubmit their records can use the online Immunization form linked to the Records Office. Students who fail to submit their Immunization information may be denied registration.
