  • “To-Do” Before Orientation

    We understand that receipt and submission of these documents and clearances may be delayed during the COVID-19 pandemic.

    We encourage you to submit as soon as you have your documents collected to allow adequate time for review and processing. You will be notified by email when your documents have been received and if any additional information is required.

    At this time, students should try to have all health clearance documents submitted on or before June 1, 2023. Please communicate with the Student Employee Health Office should you need additional time to submit your documents.
