Medical Requirements for All Incoming Students

All undergraduate and graduate students are expected to submit a completed Health History Physical & Immunization Form to the Student Health Services Office (Students enrolled in fully online programs are exempt from this requirement). Students must complete a Health History, Physical, and Immunization Record before any non-emergency services can be provided by the Health Center Staff. Resident students who do not submit the completed forms may be required to live off campus. (Approved by the Board of Trustees 2000).

Health Insurance

All full-time students are required to have health insurance (Students enrolled in fully online programs are exempt from this requirement). If you have private insurance coverage you MUST fill out the insurance waiver and provide the name of your insurance carrier and the policy number in order to waive out of the pre-billed plan provided by United Health Care.

Students with a serious or chronic health condition are urged to visit Student Health Services to discuss any health concerns. Also, please ask your physician's office to forward information pertaining to your medical problems and treatment to the Student Health Services Center to enable us to maintain continuity of your care
