The $25 charge will go directly to your University account and a bill mailed to you. If you have outside insurance, you can submit your statement to your health insurance company. Not all companies cover these shots. Please check your plan.

THERE WILL BE NO EXCEPTIONS TO THESE DATES.

The campus seasonal influenza vaccine clinics may need to be rescheduled if we do not receive the vaccine from our suppliers. Please check our web site with updates on vaccine supply prior to going to the flu shot clinic. We regret the inconvenience this may cause but are contending with a nationwide seasonal influenza vaccine distribution problem.

Please note that these flu shots are for seasonal or regular flu vaccine and not the H1N1 specific vaccine. We have not yet received our allocation of vaccine but will be scheduling H1N1 vaccine clinics when available. Please check the Student Health Center web site http://www2.ucsc.edu/healthcenter/ for H1N1 information and announcements regarding the H1N1 vaccine clinics.
