Immunization

Which hepatitis shots do I need to get? It is very confusing because in the catalog it says to get A but in the checklist for leaving it says to get B! Can a school official verify which one or do I need both!

Hi "Benjie,"

I am not clear as to what checklist for leaving you are referring to, but I did also come across the mention of a Hepatitis A vaccination in the school catalogue, so that's what I'm going to roll with. With respect to the checklist, am I missing an important piece of information?

Tick, tick, tick... :o

I just came across my pdf version of the FAQ "checklist" that you're referring to "benjie," which leaves me equally confused (the complete opposite of what you wanted to hear, no doubt!). Perhaps getting every vaccination in the book from A-Z would do the trick (shoot me up, baby... I mean, yeah... :wink: )?

I wish there was more time available to be cynical/jaded; hopefully an SMU administrator will lend some insight shortly.

Thank you for making me do my own homework!

There are two seperate sets of requirement that must be met. There is the ones required for the school and the other set that are required for immigration. The paperwork for both of these are included in the welcome packet you receive.

Here is the link to the immigration forms
