Health Records
Students at Chatham University are required to submit immunization and meningitis, and health forms. The health forms include immunization information, health background and meningitis information. The University has required immunizations. It can be expensive to get these immunizations in the U.S. We recommend that you receive all your immunizations before coming to the U.S. If you have questions about these forms and the required immunizations, please email Chatham Student Health Services or call 412-365-1714.
IMPORTANT: Students should receive the required immunizations before beginning their studies at Chatham. Health documents documentation are due a month before the start of the semester (August 1st for Fall admission, December 1st for Spring Admission). Students will receive an email from Med+Proctor to their Chatham email address. A doctor will need to complete your forms.
