Alrighty. So I got an email a few days ago from the university that I will be attending.
Our records show that you are required to provide medical documentation of one of the following along with the Student Health Form: two Varicella vaccinations, immunity to Varicella, previous diagnosis of Varicella (official note from any medical personnel with approximate date of disease is sufficient).
I only have 1 vaccination on my record. I don't know if I'm immune. I've never had chickenpox before.
I told my mom about the email, and she told me to call them and ask them about it. I don't know what there is to ask about though; even the website says I need one of the three things. They aren't going to make any exceptions.
I saw that Rite Aid Pharmacy gives immunizations, so I want to call them and ask about a varicella vaccination. However, I don't know how much it'll cost.
I also don't even know if it's practical to get another one when I'm almost 19 years old.
tl;dr I'M SCREWED AND DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO.
