The health of the individual can affect the health of the campus community, and UCSD is committed to protecting the well-being of all our students. All incoming and re-admitted students are required to meet the UC Immunization and Tuberculosis (TB) Screening Requirements.
In addition, this year, UCOP has mandated all UCSD students who will be living on campus or coming to campus for work or learning during the 2020-2021 academic year will be required to document the receipt of a flu vaccine.
Please complete these requirements early to avoid delays. Clearance can take 7-10 days after receipt, so please start this process early! FAILURE TO COMPLETE REQUIREMENTS WILL RESULT IN AN INABILITY TO ENROLL IN CLASSES.
To complete your Health Requirements, you will first need to activate your online health portal (using your Student AD) in My Student Chart. You can communicate with the Nursing team here also by going to Ask-A-Nurse in messages.
By UCOP mandate, all UCSD students who will be living on campus or coming to campus for work or learning during the 2020-2021 academic year will be required to document the receipt of a flu vaccine.

The Immunization and Tuberculosis testing forms must be taken to your Healthcare Provider, and laboratory proof of titers/Quantiferon testing/X-rays must also be uploaded with your forms.
