Lawrence Technological University is dedicated to keeping all students safe and healthy
The University requires all new students living on campus to be vaccinated and provide vaccination records to the Office of University Housing. Vaccination records include all childhood vaccinations and the Covid-19 vaccination if received. Having a record of immunizations will allow University Housing and the University to provide better care for our students in the event of an illness, accident, or campus or community outbreak.
All vaccination records or a statement informing the Office of University Housing that you are not vaccinated are due on the following dates depending on your start term:
Fall - August 1st
Spring - December 20th
Summer - May 1st
Records may be submitted any of the following ways:
- Email to housing@ltu.edu
- Fax to University Housing at 248.204.4115
- Mail to:
21000 West Ten Mile Road
University Housing
Southfield, MI 48075
Accepted Vaccination Records
Receive a copy from your health care provider(s).
Contact your K-12 institution for your records, if they were required.
You may also ask your health care provider(s) to complete our Vaccination History form.
Vaccination History Form
Records must be submitted in English.
Records should be submitted before the student moves into housing. Failure to report vaccination history will result in a hold on the student account.
Not sure how to get your vaccination records? Most states provide access to your vaccination records for free. Search your state's .gov page on how to request your records. You may also reach out to us via email and we can assist as much as possible.
