As an international student, am I required to comply with the vaccination requirement?
Yes, international students also must file proof they have received the vaccination by the specified deadline. UT Arlington strongly encourages international students to get the meningitis vaccine in their home country. Students also may purchase the vaccination through the UT Arlington Health Services Center, through an area public
health clinic or from another provider.
International students on F-1 visas are NOT eligible for a waiver of the meningitis vaccination requirements based on exclusive enrollment in online courses because they may take no more than three hours of online coursework each semester.
Please note: Students specifically enrolled in the English Language Institute housed at UT Arlington are not subject to the requirements unless they are concurrently enrolled in a UT Arlington course. For information about the English Language Institute, visit http://eli.uta.edu/.

If you plan to enroll in any class on the UT Arlington campus, then state law requires you to submit vaccination proof to UT Arlington.
