Student Health offers free flu vaccine to all VCU students. The flu vaccine is effective and does not cause the flu. All students are encouraged to complete the flu vaccine, especially those at high-risk for flu complications (eg. those with asthma, diabetes, HIV, etc.). The flu vaccine is also an annual requirement for Health Sciences students.
Students can receive the flu vaccine at Student Health during walk-in immunization hours or immediately following a scheduled medical appointment.

Protect yourself by completing the Gardasil (HPV) vaccine series (3 shots over 6 months). Check to see if you are eligible for free or discounted Gardasil vaccines during a scheduled appointment or walk-in immunization hours.
