You can submit these records electronically using this , via fax at 601.266.4205, or via postal mail at 51¶ºÄÌ Miss Student Health Services, 118 College Drive, #5066, Hattiesburg, MS 39406. You will not be eligible to enroll in classes until you have submitted these records, so please submit those records as soon as possible. Immunization records are not required for students enrolled in a fully online program.
