Student Health Insurance

抵达前的健康要求
A所有学生都必须提交 completed immunization records as well as other health information forms to the Student Health Center prior to their arrival on campus. The completed forms are mandatory. It is recommended that all students have a physical exam by their personal physician prior to the start of the school year, however, it is mandatory for anyone who plans to participate in athletics at the University of Mount Union. 更多信息将由体育部发送给运动员.
The forms also include questions about Tuberculosis and the possible need for Mantoux (Tuberculosis) skin testing.

To reduce and eliminate vaccine-preventable diseases on campus we support the recommendations of 美国大学健康协会 Vaccine-Preventable Disease Task Force based on guidelines consistent with 免疫做法咨询委员会 recommendations. 这些建议包括考虑水痘免疫接种, Hepatitis B immunizations, 以及脑膜炎球菌疫苗等. 有关这些疾病和疫苗的信息可以在疾病预防控制中心的网页上找到.
Due to the identification of certain factors that may place college students at increased risk for meningococcal disease, 免疫做法咨询委员会, 美国大学健康协会, and the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends that parents and students be educated about meningococcal disease and the benefits of vaccination. The recommendations further state that "College freshman that want to reduce their risk for meningococcal disease should either be administered vaccine (by a health care provider) or directed to a site where the vaccine is available." For more information about meningitis visit the website of the Meningitis Foundation of America.
The completed forms should be mailed to the Student Health Center as soon as possible. 他们必须在开课前收到. Please include only the Health Center forms in your envelope and address them to:
