The flu vaccine is safe, effective, and does not cause the flu. All students are encouraged to complete the flu vaccine, especially those at high-risk for flu complications (eg. those with asthma, diabetes, HIV, etc.).
The human papillomavirus or HPV is the most common sexually transmitted infection. HPV infections can lead to genital warts or certain cancers, including cervical cancer and anal cancer. Protect yourself by completing the Gardasil (HPV) vaccine series (3 shots over 6 months). To find out if you are eligible for free or discounted Gardasil vaccine, call Student Health to schedule an immunization appointment.
Students are encouraged to use the Student Health Web Portal to submit vaccine records.
If you receive an error message when logging into the Portal, please allow up to 1-3 business days after accepting your offer of admission to log in. Student Health receives your information from Records and Registration, so you will need to be assigned a V# and eID in order to access the Web Portal.
Many error messages are due to improper file format or size. Please ensure your file is in PDF or JPEG format and no more than 5 MB in size.
If you continue to have problems using the Portal, contact Student Health Immunizations at 804-827-8047.
Students who have submitted a copy of their vaccine records to Student Health may view and/or print their records and vaccine titers at their convenience through the Student Health Web Portal. Go to the "My Profile" tab, then choose "Immun. History".
