Provide Proof of Immunizations
In accordance with North Carolina state public health law, you must provide the Student Health Center with proof of your immunizations. If you do not meet this requirement within 30 days of your acceptance, you will be dropped from all your courses. It will cost $150 to re-enroll.  If you have questions about this requirement, please review our Immunization Compliance Policy for further details.

Tracking down evidence of your immunizations can be challenging. If you or your parents do not have your immunization records, we suggest that you check with your personal physician, county health department, previous college or university, or military branch.  The NC Department of Health and Human Services has additional tips for tracking down your immunization record.

If you have official records of your immunizations, such as transcripts, health department records, or WHO cards, please complete the following steps:

• Log in to HealthWeb with your Unity id and password.
• Click Forms on the left.
• Read the instructions.
• Scroll to the bottom of the page.
• Click Immunizations Page.
• Referring to your official records, enter the dates of your shots in the online form.

If you have unofficial records of your immunizations, (for example, you may have baby books without a doctor’s signature, or your mother’s personal records), please complete the following steps:

• Log in to HealthWeb with your Unity id and password.
• Click Forms on the left.
• Read the instructions.
• Scroll to the bottom of the page.
• Click Immunizations Page.
• Referring to your unofficial records, enter the dates of your shots in the online form.

• Click Proceed to submit your information to the Student Health Center for processing.
• Take the paper copy of the form that you just printed from HealthWeb to your healthcare provider, and have him or her sign it. Your provider’s signature makes your dates official.

Many students find it easier to gather their own records, because it saves them doctor’s office visits and associated fees. Some students are short a shot or two, and will have to visit their doctors for shots anyway. If you are missing shots, please enter the dates that you do have on the HealthWeb form as described above, print the form, and bring it with you to the doctor. Your doctor can then update the dates for your missing shots, date, sign, and stamp your form, and forward the hard copy to the Student Health Center Immunization Compliance office.

If you have no records at all, you’ll need to visit your healthcare provider to receive the required immunizations. Have your doctor provide you with a complete record that shows the date of your immunizations, enter the dates into the HealthWeb form as described above, and mail, fax, or hand-deliver a paper copy of the complete record to the Student Health Center Immunization Compliance Office.

Tuberculosis Screening (International Students and non-U.S. citizens only)
If you are either an international student or a non-U.S. citizen, you must have a tuberculin (PPD) test administered by a NCSU acceptable medical facility within the 12 months preceding the first day of classes. PPD readings must be stated in MM induration.

We do not accept the results of PPD tests or chest x-rays completed in medical facilities outside the United States. You may wait and have these test(s) done after you arrive at NC State University. Student Health Services can perform a blood test to detect Tb bacteria infection. The test is called T-SPOT.Tb test. If you receive this test at the Student Health Center, and you receive health insurance coverage under the University-sponsored Health Insurance Plan, your health insurance policy will cover the cost of the test. If you would like to have this test done instead of a PPD, please call 919-515-2563 to make an appointment once you are on campus.

Complete the Parental Consent for Treatment Form (Students under the age of 18 only)
If you are under the age of 18, your parent or guardian should download and complete the Parental Consent for Treatment Form. You may then mail, fax or hand-deliver the form to the Student Health Center.
