Stamps Health Services is offering free flu shots to all Georgia Tech students who have paid their health fee. Flu shots will also be available to faculty and staff as well as students who have not paid their health fee for $25.00. Stamps Health Services cannot accept cash, so please bring a credit card or your BuzzCard for payment.

All students, faculty and staff must bring their BuzzCard when checking in for their flu shot.

You have two ways to get the flu shot:  

  1. Students can make an online appointment at www.myappointment.health.gatech.edu.  Faculty and staff should call 404.894.1432 for an appointment. 
  2. If you have an appointment to see a Stamps Health Services provider, just ask to have your flu shot administered during your visit. Any of the nursing personnel will be happy to administer the shot for you at this time.

Be sure to visit the Flu Vaccination webpage for additional information.

While the current vaccine is not as effective against one of the flu strains currently circulating, it will likely reduce the severity and duration if one gets sick from the flu. It is also important to practice preventative measures including covering your cough, frequent hand washing, and staying home if you are feeling sick.
