<p class=MsoNormal>Please note that the <b><i><u><span style='font-size:14.0pt;
color:red;background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow'>Bacterial Meningitis
vaccination is required for ALL NEW STUDENTS</span></u></i></b> to
A&M-Commerce. It is strongly recommended that international students
receive the vaccination <b><i><u>prior</u></i></b> to departing their home
country. If you wait until you arrive in the U.S. the cost of the shot is
significant, there has been a short supply of the vaccination, and there is a
limited timeframe to receive the vaccination or you will not be able to attend
classes. <b><i><span style='background:yellow;mso-highlight:yellow'>DO
NOT WAIT UNTIL YOU ARRIVE IN THE U.S. TO RECEIVE THE VACCINATION.</span></i></b>
