Pre-entry Health Requirements
JULY 8
COMPLETE BY
State law requires students to submit specific information about immunizations and complete a TB assessment form. Immunizations must be up to date. JMU does not require a physical exam, but you must complete the following: 1. Print an official immunization record from your doctor or school (no signature required.) If you do not have access to that, download and print the JMU immunization form and have it com- pleted and signed by a health care professional. 2. Complete the required TB assessment form for new students under “Forms” in MyJMUChart. 3. Log in to MyJMUChart and enter your insurance information under the “Insurance” tab. Please select “uninsured” if appropriate. 4. Upload your immunization record and a copy of your insurance card. All uploaded documents must be in PDF format. 5. Continue checking your JMU email and secure messages on MyJMUChart for confirmation that your record is complete and there is nothing further needed. Your pre-entry health requirements are 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.
