Incoming student health requirements
Visit the Patient Portal to submit your health requirements. Choose "Binghamton University" and log in with your Binghamton University information.
Step 1: Click on “Forms” and complete and upload the following:
- Health history form - complete on the Patient Portal
- Meningococcal vaccination response form - completed on the Patient Portal if over 18; upload manually if under 18
- Tuberculosis screening questionnaire - complete on the Patient Portal
- Under 18 Consent Form (if you are younger than 18 years) - download from the FORMS page of the Patient Portal, print the form and have your parent/guardian sign it, then upload the completed form using UNDER 18 CONSENT FORM
Step 2: Send in proof you are immune to measles, mumps and rubella by doing one of the following:
- Have your medical provider sign a copy of your immunization record and send it to us or you can upload the record to the Patient Portal using the reason STUDENT HEALTH REQUIREMENTS
- Have your medical provider complete a copy of the “Certificate of Immunization,” which you can print from the FORMS page of the health portal, and upload the record to the Patient Portal using the reason STUDENT HEALTH REQUIREMENTS
- Send us copies of blood tests (“titers”) which prove you are immune to measles, mumps, and rubella by uploading the laboratory report to the Patient Portal using the reason STUDENT HEALTH REQUIREMENTS
Note: this will require the help of your medical provider or school nurse, so start early. Make sure your name and date of birth is on every page that is sent to us.
Students should check to see if they have completed all the requirements 5-7 business days after uploading their information. Sign in to the Patient Portal and go to the “Immunizations” tab. Any item listed under “Missing Immunization” is still outstanding and should be uploaded.
Without an approved exemption, failure to meet the vaccine requirements may result in consequences ranging from holds that block you from registering for courses to disenrollment and removal from campus.
Students who are not compliant for the health requirements will receive notices through the patient portal indicating that data is missing. You may receive these messages even after submitting immunization records if the record is incomplete or has not been fully processed by the DSHSC staff.
Students with questions about immunization compliance can call 607-777-2221 and speak with our staff for further clarification.
