  8. All students, once enrolled in courses, need to complete a medical history and tuberculosis risk assessment on Medicat. You will not have access to complete these items until you are enrolled in courses. If your TB risk assessment indicates that you need a TB test, you can upload a previous test to Medicat or schedule with the Health Center to get a TB test. 
    You will also submit proof of 2 doses of Measles, Mumps, Rubella (MMR) vaccine or an immune MMR titer on Medicat.  Medicat does communicate with the state of MO immunization registry, ShowMeVax, so some students may have immunization information prepopulated.
    If you are living in campus housing, you cannot move in until you provide proof of a current Meningitis vaccine (MCV4 at age 16 or older).
    View detailed requirements at: mssu.edu/student-affairs/willcoxon-health-center/requirements.
    ***All immunization requirements must be met before students are permitted to attend classes. If you would like to review your record with the Health Center and/or discuss vaccinations, you can reach them at Willcoxon Health Center or at 417-625-9323.
  9. If you plan to live in the residence halls, you will need to complete an online Housing Contract, pay your $150 housing deposit, and have proof of a current meningitis vaccine. Log into your LioNet account and click, "Applications and Forms" under Campus Housing. For more information contact the Residence Life Office at 417-625-4261 or http://residencelife.mssu.edu/.
  10. Have you sent your final High School transcript to the MSSU Admissions Office? (Freshman requirement)
