Meningococcal Clinic

Students and employees of Colorado State University and Front Range Community College, Fort Collins campus, who are between the ages of 2 and 29 years old and roommates or family who live with them and are within that age group will have an opportunity to get a free meningococcal disease vaccine from 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. on Thursday, Nov. 11, at the Student Recreation Center on the CSU campus. Those hours may be extended based registration demand. Online registration for the Thursday clinic is available at http://safety.colostate.edu/

Registration speeds process

Registering online speeds up the process significantly, with an estimated average 15 minutes or less from arrival to completed vaccination. Students and employees also can walk in to the clinic and sign up for a vaccination, but might be required to wait longer or may find that all vaccine is already reserved.

During Friday's clinic, the vaccination process on average took less than ten minutes from the time registered participants entered the building through vaccination completion.

The clinic will open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Thursday.
