Registration Health Hold

If students taking 6 credits or more* have not submitted documentation that meets Skidmore 和 New York State (NYS) health requirements by the appropriate deadline, a Health Hold will be placed on the student’s registrar account. This will prevent a student from being able to register for the next semester’s classes until requirements 得到满足.  

Prior to a Health Hold being placed, a student will be contacted several times via messages in their health portal. These messages will automatically send e-mail 和 text message alerts.  

To prevent a Health Hold, students must submit adequate documentation of:  

• Required vaccinations (measles, mumps, 和 rubella (MMR), meningitis, tetanus) OR religious or medical exemption with notification of approval from 卫生服务
• Medical provider documentation of physical exam (within 1 year of matriculation date)  
• Health History Form  
• Tuberculosis screening/testing  
• Consent for Care 和 Privacy Form  

For more details on requirements please see information on the following webpages Incoming Student 和 Immunization Requirements    

Removing a Health Hold  

Students who submit appropriate documentation approved by 卫生服务 will have their Health Hold released either by 卫生服务 or the 注册商. 每日报告 is run by 卫生服务 starting the day prior to each registration period (Fall 和 Spring) through the registration period to identify students who have met requirements 和 can have their Health Hold removed. Students will be informed by phone, email in person at the time of an appointment in 卫生服务, when requirements have been met 和 when the Health Hold will be removed.  

*This applies to employees who are taking credits, as well as students who are studying 在国外.
