Immunization and Health Insurance
Immunization Requirements
Colorado Law (Board of Health rule 6 CCR 1009-2) requires that all full-time students born after January 1, 1957 show proof of immunization against measles, mumps, and rubella. Students residing in student housing are also required to show proof of immunization against meningococcal disease and COVID-19 at the time of housing check in.
There are two types of immunization exceptions. Medical exemptions must be signed by a licensed physician and must include a date and reason for exemption. Non-medical exemptions are provided for religious or personal beliefs that are opposed to immunizations. Please contact the Housing Director for more information: (719) 846-5497.
Certification and waiver forms are available online on the Student Life Housing link under immunization link or at the Student Services Office. The COVID-19 vaccination is not required as a condition of enrollment at the College. The College will provide students with a list of local providers offering the COVID-19 vaccine at no cost.
Student Health Insurance
TSC does not require health insurance for non-athlete students. However, all student athletes must show proof of a student health insurance plan. Trinidad State encourages all students to carry health insurance. For information on student insurance, see the Student Services Office on your campus.
International Students are required to provide evidence of insurance in accordance with the International Student Application process.
