Immunizations
NGCSU Student Health Services offers a wide range of immunization services to the students. We offer the Flu Vaccine at no charge to students who have paid their health fee. All other vaccines listed are at the student's expense. Students who wish to purchase these immunizations should do so at the Business Office. Payments options include cash, check, or credit card. WE WILL NOT BILL YOUR INSURANCE! Once the student has paid for the vaccine he or she should return to the Student Health Service to receive the vaccine.
