Proof of immunity to measles and rubella. The North Dakota State Board of Higher Education requires that all students attending North Dakota state institutions demonstrate immunity to these diseases. Such immunity can be proven by: a) presenting evidence of two doses of measles, and one dose of mumps and rubella vaccine, no less than one month apart, from a licensed physician or authorized representative of a state or local health department, b) presenting proof of a positive serologic test for measles, mumps, and rubella, or c) presenting proof of date of birth prior to 1957.

Exceptions to this policy may be granted only when: a) immunization is contraindicated by illness, pregnancy, certain allergies, or other medical conditions certified by a licensed physician, b) the student has had one immunization and agrees to have a second one no less than one month later, or c) the student's religious beliefs preclude participation in an immunization program.

When, in the opinion of the State Health Officer, danger of an epidemic exists from any of the communicable diseases for which immunization is required under this policy, the exemptions from immunization against such disease shall not be recognized and students not immunized or otherwise immune shall not be allowed on campus until, in the opinion of the State Health Officer, the danger of the epidemic is over.
