Immunization Schedules for Children

Child Care and School Entry

Enrolling your child in school or a child care facility in North Carolina? You'll need your child's immunization records.

Children need all required immunizations to attend school and child care. This includes public, private and religious settings.

Records get checked at the time of:

• Child care entry
• Kindergarten and seventh grade entry
• College/University entry

There are some exemptions to North Carolina's immunization law.
