Two of my friend's teenage daughters got vaccinated w/o parental consent. I don't think that's legal. The eldest daughter took her two younger sisters (12 and 15) in for vaccination w/o their parent's consent.
it depends on the state they are in. some states allow fairly young kids to make their own medical decisions.

State Laws on Minor Consent for Routine Medical Care
This resource lists laws allowing minors who are living on their own, including unaccompanied minors experiencing homelessness, to consent for routine health care, which should include vaccinations unless explicitly exempted.
