Before registering at The Cooper Union, all degree-seeking students enrolled for six (6) credits or more and born on or after January 1, 1957, must provide documentation of their immunizations against measles, mumps, and rubella.

All new students are required to complete a series of health and medical forms including proof of immunizations. Please be sure to provide the dates of these vaccinations along with a medical provider's signature as indicated on the form.

If you have a history of a medically diagnosed case of either the measles or the mumps you will not need to present proof of having received these vaccinations. Documentation must be verified by a medical provider as indicated on the immunization form. This is not the case for rubella.

If you are unable to obtain the necessary medical provider signature or immunization documentation, an alternative is to have a Blood Antibody Titer drawn. This lab test measures the level of measles, mumps, and rubella antibodies in your blood. If you choose this option, please attach a copy of the lab results along with the immunization form. Any result other than a positive result will be deemed noncompliant.

Completed forms must be received by The Office of Student Affairs per the instructions on the required medical forms.

Students should visit www.cooper.edu/healthforms as well for more information, due dates, requirements, and a list of required forms. 

If you have not submitted your documentation by the due dates listed above, please make sure to submit your documentation by uploading them into the student portal. Should you have any any questions, please reach out to Student Affairs staff via email at healthforms@cooper.edu. Completing the required health forms by the dates listed above will help to prevent complications with your registration.
