Immunisation Information
All international students who are studying courses which require clinical placements are also required to have vaccinations as per NSW Health guidelines.
International students are advised to retain a certified copy of Certificate of Vaccination that is required for their Australian visa entry. If you have your vaccinations in your own country you will be required to produce certified evidence of completion as per NSW Health policy.
However all international students will be required to undertake the Mantoux Testing for tuberculosis screening again in Australia.
When you attend your doctor in your own country please take the information supplied by the NSW Health Department that explains what is required.
