Immunization Policy
The Haverford College Immunization Policy follows the guidelines of the Pennsylvania State Mandatory Vaccinations for School Entrance Policy, CDC, Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), and American College Health Association (ACHA) recommendations for entry to school.
In the State of Pennsylvania, students have the right to refuse vaccinations on medical and religious. If a student makes a decision not to vaccinate they must do so in writing by completing the “Decision Not To Vaccinate” form and have their Healthcare Provider sign the document. The form must be upload in the HaverHealth Portal.
Please note the risks and consequences of not receiving the vaccine(s) may include: contracting the illness the vaccine should prevent, transmitting the disease to others, and the need to stay out of school/off campus during disease outbreaks at the expense of the student.
