Medical Clearances and Immunization Records
All Morgan State University students are required to complete the University's medical clearance requirements through the Student Health Portal before their assigned deadline. Completing these requirements helps protect the health and safety of the campus community, supports compliance with University health policies, and ensures students are eligible to continue their academic enrollment.
Important: Registration Hold
Students who do not complete all required medical clearance requirements by their assigned deadline will have a registration hold placed on their student account by the University Health Center. This hold will prevent registration for future courses and will remain in place until all required medical forms, immunization records, and supporting documentation have been submitted, reviewed, and approved by the University Health Center.
Submitting documentation alone does not satisfy your medical clearance requirements. Your records must be reviewed and approved before the registration hold can be removed.

If you report a pre-existing medical condition, indicate that you are currently receiving treatment from a healthcare provider, or report taking prescription medication, the University Health Center may require you to submit a current treatment plan or other supporting medical documentation from your treating provider.
