Immunization Compliance

Important Announcement: On Tuesday, June 20^th, the Immunizations tab in your student Patient Portal will become available. Your student Patient Portal is connected to your Electronic Health Record (EHR) the Florida Shots state immunization registry so your immunizations may already be on file. If you have previously submitted immunization documents and had your holds removed, there is no need to resubmit paperwork. If you are a new student enrolling in the Summer or Fall 2023 semesters, then beginning on Tuesday, 6/20, please go to your student Patient Portal to see if your immunization status is compliant. If you have not been cleared (red dot next to Immunizations tab), you will need to enter your immunization dates and upload supporting documents on your student Patient Portal. You will no longer be able to upload immunization documents through your myWings/Banner Self Service account.
