Thursday, October 1

Please note where each clinic will be located so you can go to the correct building.

This will be a walk-in clinic; no appointment is necessary. Requirements to participate:

Must be a currently matriculated IC undergrad or grad student with ID
Must bring Ithaca College ID card to receive vaccination
Students under 18 years of age must have parental permission to receive the vaccination. Forms are available at the Hammond Health Center and must be completed prior to the clinic time.
Ithaca College is offering the vaccinations free to all enrolled students.

Please dress appropriately to receive a shot in the upper arm (i.e. wear short sleeves, sleeves than can easily be rolled up, or layers).

These shots are for the seasonal flu only. For information on the H1N1 virus, please visit the Health Center's H1N1 influenza page:

Health Center: H1N1 Influenza

Those students who are unable to attend above clinics should contact the Hammond Health Center to make an appointment. We will also be offering more vaccination clinics in the near future.

If you have questions or prefer to make an appointment to receive the seasonal flu shot at the Health Center, please contact 607-274-1183 during regular business hours.
