Immunizations and health issues

Check the MSU Travel Clinic or Center for Disease Conrtrol (CDC)for information on immunizations and health issues.  OSA will cover the cost of an office visit and any mandatory immunizations for all program leaders (including program assistants) to countries that are part of the program itinerary. Covered services received at Olin Health Center can be billed directly to the Office of Study Abroad.  Please make sure you include the cost in your program budget. OSA will not cover the cost of updated vaccinations or routine immunizations such as tetanus, etc.  If you plan to meet with your personal physician regarding your travel health needs, take a copy of the CDC recommendation to your appointment.

Carry all prescription drugs in original containers and bring written information on blood type, prescriptions and other special medical conditions.
