Immunizations
All medical students are expected to maintain continuous compliance throughout medical school.
How to stay compliant with immunizations
All incoming students should submit immunization records to Boynton prior to October 1st of their first year. Thereafter, some students may need an updated Tetanus shot.
NOTE: The registrar’s office only sees what is on your MEdIS Compliance tab – whether or not you are compliant and your expiration date, and this is what determines your compliance status. You should NEVER send medical documentation to the registrar’s office, and should direct all questions and documentation regarding your compliance status to Boynton.
