A student who does not submit their transcripts to a NACES organization for evaluation will not receive any credit.

Not submitting the information could be grounds for dismissal from the University.If transfer credit is required, a course description of each class must accompany the transcripts before the student will be admitted to TTU.

Immunizations Students must provide proof of two (2) MMRs (measles, mumps, and rubella) vaccinations. Note the first dose must have been given on or after the first birthday. Students born prior to 1957, or those with a documented history of physician diagnosed Measles, are exempt from this requirement.
TTU Health Services recommends that all students provide immunization records for:
1. All full-time undergraduate and graduate students must provide proof of 2 MMR's. All students
must fill out Hepatitis B/Meningitis waiver form prior to registering for the initial semester
2. TB skin test- within past 12 months
3. documented history of physician diagnosed Chicken Pox or proof of chicken pox vaccine (2
doses)
4. Students planning to live in the dormitories or residence halls must show proof of the meningitis
vaccine after their 16th birthday.
These immunizations are at the cost of the student, TTU will not pay for these vaccines, and they are quite costly-it is better to have them done before you come to the US. All full-time undergraduate and graduate students must provide proof of 2 MMR's. All students must fill out Hepatitis B/Meningitis waiver form prior to registering for the initial semester. Other optional vaccines which one can submit: Tetanus/Diptheria -within past 10 years for booster; Meningitis Vaccine; Hepatitis B Vaccine- series of 3 injections. State Law will not permit TTU officials from waiving these requirements. They are required and no exceptions can be made. It you believe you have had the immunizations but have no written record, you may take a titer for the MMR and Chicken pox to determine your immunity thus relieve you of receiving the vaccination.

(see the form you can submit to your bank on the next page). Be sure to pay the SEVIS fee prior to your visa appointment; go to http://www.fmjfee.com to pay the SEVIS fee online.
