Pre-Entry Health Requirements State law requires students to submit specific information about immunizations and complete a TB assessment. Immunizations must be up to date. JMU does not require a physical exam, but you must com- plete the following:

COMPLETE BY
1. Download and print the immunization form and have it completed and signed by a health care professional. JMU accepts official immunization records from your doctor or another school. 2. Log into MyJMUChart account to upload the com- pleted and signed immunization form (or official record), as well as a copy of your health insurance card. All uploaded forms must be in PDF format. 3. Complete the required TB assessment and health history for new students under the “forms” tab in MyJMUChart. 4. Continue checking your JMU email and secure messages on MyJMUChart for confirmation that your record is complete and there is nothing further needed. This step is not complete until you receive that confirmation.
Failure to complete these steps will result in a nonrefundable $50 fine and you will not be able to make changes to your class schedule or enroll in classes for future semesters.
Be well, stay well and do well. Getting the recommended immunizations is one way to protect yourself from several major illnesses. Receiving the flu shot every October is another. Washing your hands frequently, not sharing drinks and keeping your room clean will also help you stay well. If you do get sick, the University Health Center has Self-Care guides available online, nurses to help you decide if you need to make an appointment and medical providers ready to evaluate your health and recommend treatment.
