Quick Checklist:
1. Get started early – This allows us time to review your documentation and to inform you if anything is incomplete or missing. Sometimes there are problems with medical records, and an early start gives you more time to deal with any issues. You do not have to submit everything at once. Check your school email and health portal every week for messages about forms.
2. SCHEDULE YOUR PHYSICAL EXAMINATION AND RETAIN A COPY OF YOUR IMMUNIZATIONS - Schedule as soon as possible so that you will have your physical done on time. Some health care providers are scheduled out months in advance. Go to your Physical Exam appointment prepared and knowing what you need.
3. Print out your Physical Exam and Immunization forms ahead of time and TAKE THEM WITH YOU at the time of your appointment.
- Your physical MUST BE WITHIN 1 year of your start date at 色综合久久. Athletes - per NCAA regulations, your physical must be within 6 months of your start date.

It will also require a copy of your insurance information and give you IMPORTANT INFORMATION about how to the STUDENT HEALTH INSURANCE.

We require insurance because we want to ensure that all students are adequately covered in case of an accident or emergency; unfortunately, these are the situations that we don’t plan for. Because ALL students are required to have insurance, ALL STUDENTS ARE AUTOMATICALLY SIGNED UP FOR AND CHARGED for THE SCHOOL INSURANCE (approximately $2,654/yr). After adequate proof of insurance is vetted, the school insurance can be waived.
