deadline for hep B shot

<p>I'm really excited about going to UCLA this fall but I had many problems getting the Hep B vaccination. I finally got the first shot today. Is this too late; may I still enroll.</p>

<p>hmm if you got the first shot today, you'll be getting the last one in October sometime, which is past the September deadline to show proof of vaccination. <a href="http://www.studenthealth.ucla.edu/nbhepb.htm%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.studenthealth.ucla.edu/nbhepb.htm&lt;/a>
you should probably call the school and see what you should do about this.</p>

<p>This only for students under 18 right?
Anyway I have got it.</p>

<p>Thanks a lot Freebird, great help! can somebod please answer my question.</p>

<p>Sorry, just had 6 hours of continuous exams, I just wasn't thinking right.
Send the admin. office at ucla an email and them what you have to do.</p>

<p>The ones from 7th-8th grade are fine, right? I don't need a booster?</p>

<p>^^ yeah, i just submitted the online verification form thing using the completion date form my 7th grade one.</p>

<p>no you don't need boosters for Hep B vaccination - it renders a lifetime immunity
and no, freebird - everyone needs to get the vaccine.</p>

<p>thank you much</p>

<p>I downloaded this from: <a href="http://www.registrar.ucla.edu/soc/register.htm%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.registrar.ucla.edu/soc/register.htm&lt;/a> I think this means I'm safe.</p>

<p>Hepatitis B Vaccine Requirement:</p>

<p>The California State Legislature requires as a condition of enrollment that students 18 years and younger demonstrate immunity from hepatitis B. The Ashe Center offers the hepatitis B vaccine to eligible students. Students who have not had the vaccine should start the series before their first term begins. Because this is a state requirement, students who have not completed the immunization series and submitted proof of completion to the Ashe Center by the time their third term begins will have a hold placed on their records.</p>

<p>Proof of compliance with the requirement is electronic through the Ashe Center website at <a href="http://www.studenthealth.ucla.edu%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.studenthealth.ucla.edu&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p>

<p>hmm thats odd - freebird, my apologies, it appears I was wrong. I thought it was a requirement of everyone...</p>
