Please ensure that your passport expires AFTER November 23, 2018 (this is 6 months after the brigade date).

 

Immunizations

Our club will set up group travel-clinic appointments with Campus Health a few weeks before departure. In these clinics, nurses will review any Ghana-specific health concerns, recommend prescriptions needed (i.e. malaria medication), and administer immunizations. Immunizations through Campus Health are typically cheaper than off-campus options. You will need a yellow-fever vaccine!
