NEW LEGISLATION: Bacterial Meningitis Vaccination

New state legislation mandates that effective Spring 2012, all new students under the age of 30 are required to provide proof of having received the bacterial meningitis vaccination or booster by January 7 for the Spring semester. The legislation does not apply to you if you are enrolled only in courses online or via distance education.

You must provide proof of receiving the vaccine to Collin College or file for an exemption. The Texas Department of State Health Services allows exemptions from the immunization requirement based on:

• Reasonsofconscience,includingbutnotlimitedtoa religious belief

• ActivedutywiththearmedforcesoftheUnitedStates

Visit the TDSHS immunization exemptions webpage for instructions on requesting an exemption.

You may fax your documentation to 1.972.548.6702 or 972.377.1792. For more information, on exceptions and exemptions,[email protected].

The vaccine must be current and valid through May 13, 2012. For the spring term, you must provide proof of receiving the vaccine on or before January 7, 2012.

diStanCe learningIn an effort to accommodate the wide array of student schedules and

learning styles, Collin College offers a variety of distance learning credit courses. These courses are offered through two methods of delivery: blended and web.

Blended learning courses require some on-campus time and offer the flexibility to incorporate distance learning with on-site instructional activities.

Web courses offer students the flexibility to obtain an education via the Internet. Instructional materials, readings, assignments, and in some cases class discussions may be accessed whether students are at home, at work or on vacation. Some web courses may require onsite or proctored testing at an approved testing center in any geographic location.

In addition, Collin College offers hybrid courses. Hybrid courses combine regularly scheduled on-campus instruction with online instruction.

Distance learning courses may apply toward associate degree requirements.
