The State of New Jersey requires all full-time (12 or more credits), degree seeking students to provide proof of immunizations against measles, mumps, rubella, meningococcal and hepatitis b. Proof of immunizations should be certificated by your health care provider utilizing the “Certificate of Immunization” form, which can be obtained from the College at rcbc.edu/forms.

Students who are exempt from the immunization requirements on grounds of medical contraindication, religious reasons, or age (students born before 1957 are exempt from MMR requirements only), should submit the “Certificate of Immunization”, indicating the type of exemption, along with supporting documentation as required.

Student may be admitted and enrolled on a provisional basis for their first term if required immunization documentation is not available at the time of registration.
