If you were born after December 31, 1956, Connecticut State Law requires that all full-time (degree seeking and non-degree/non-matriculating) and part-time matriculating students enrolled in postsecondary schools be adequately protected against measles, mumps and rubella. In addition, beginning on August 1, 2010 all full-time and matriculating students, except those born in the continental United States prior to January 1, 1980, must provide proof of immunization against varicella (chicken pox). Students must have two (2) doses of each vaccine administered at least one (1) month apart to insure adequate immunization.

 

You must bring in proof of immunization or you will not be able to register for classes.

 

The Admissions office also needs proof of high school graduation or GED accreditation if you are applying to an NCC certificate or degree program or if you are seeking financial aid. *Financial Aid (Pell Grant) may be available for Summer for new students.
