Flu Vaccine Information

Seasonal Flu Shots are recommended for all university students. Living and working together in close quarters, as is typical in a university, increases the risk of influenza.

• Seasonal influenza vaccine is anticipated to be offered to currently registered NU students at the Health Service/Evanston Campus the last half of September.
• Vaccines will be given on an appointment basis after NUHS has received delivery of the vaccine. Bulk email will be sent to notify students when appointments may be scheduled
• Students must present a valid student ID (WildCARD) at the time of the appointment to be eligible for the vaccine.
• Payment of $25 cost for the vaccine is expected at the time of service or may be billed to the student's NU account
• The seasonal flu vaccine is available to students only; faculty, staff and student families are not included in the eligible group.
• For additional influenza vaccine information, go to the Centers for Disease Control Web site.

Note: Northwestern University Health Service is no longer permitted to offer flu shots to faculty or staff.
