Flu Shots for Students, Faculty, and Staff

Horns up! Protect your family. Protect the herd! 

The 25-26 Flu Shot will be avilable on all campuses in early Fall 2025! Please call the telephone number for your campus clinic (below) for same day appointments, scheduling, or information. All Bulls are encouraged to get the flu shot so they're prepared for cold and flu season. 

6/27/25 Update: neither 24-25 Seasonal Flu shot, nor COVID vaccine is currently available.

STUDENTS: You will not have to pay out of pocket for your flu shot. We are offering campus clinics Monday through Friday for Flu shots. Any insurance payment received supports our specialty Wellness services at no out of pocket cost to our students.

FACULTY & STAFF: We charge insurance for Flu vaccinations. Without insurance, self-pay rates are offered. Please see below for details. Please bring your insurance card or complete your information in advance via this form.

 FACULTY & STAFF: The flu vaccination can be administered at Student Health campus clinics (see table above). No more COVID vaccine is available for 24/25 Academic Year.

  • The flu shot is covered 100% by the State PPO, HMO, and high deductible insurance plans. Please bring your insurance card to the clinic.
  • OPS Staff without health insurance may receive the flu vaccination for $25. 
  • If you have an alternate insurance plan that does not cover the vaccination 100%, the maximum out of pocket cost is $25.
  • We are not offering Fluzone High-Dose Quadrivalent; we recommend visiting an off-campus location for high-dose flu vaccination

Flu Shot Myths

  1. Flu shots will give you the flu. 
    • FALSE... the vaccine contains the dead flu virus... it is dead.... It cannot infect you.
  2. Vaccines are dangerous. 
    • FALSE... Vaccines are, arguably, the greatest medical advance in history. They've prevented more illness and death than any treatment.
  3. It's after November; it's too late to get a flu shot. 
    • FALSE... There are plenty of vaccines left, and the flu stays around through March, so you still have plenty of time to protect yourself.
  4. I got the vaccine last year, so I am protected. 
    • FALSE... Each year there are new strains of the flu virus and the vaccine needs to change to keep up.

By arming yourself with a flu shot you are protecting yourself and those around you. Watch Rocky get his flu shot in this short video.
