Submit Immunization Information

Every new UF student is required to show proof of having health insurance and certain immunizations before arriving on campus. To register for classes, students must submit a completed UF Mandatory Immunization Health History form. If needed, these immunizations may be obtained from the Student Health Care Center on the UF campus in Gainesville. Call: 352-294-2925.

All offers of admission are tentative until the Office of Admissions receives your final high school and/or college transcripts. Make arrangements to send your final high school and/or college transcripts to our office, as your school may not automatically do this.
