Entering Students 2008

Welcome!

As an incoming Dartmouth student, you have pre-matriculation health requirements to complete before your first term at Dartmouth.  These requirements are presented in both paper and on-line forms.  The health service packet which you will receive through the mail will give you detailed instructions on which forms may be completed by yourself and those that need to be completed by others (such as a physician or a health insurance representative).

The Health Service Mailing

All students entering Fall 2008 should look for a Health Service package containing brochures, information and form(s) to satisfy immunization and health insurance requirements.  Please watch for your package to arrive in a 10 X 13 inch white envelope. We use First Class mail for U.S. addresses and Air Mail for international addresses.

On-line Forms:  Required for all Students

Most of our forms are on-line this year.  Please carefully review the instructions enclosed in the mailing. The instructions will direct you to the required forms and provide you with the information on how the forms must be completed.

Access: Your access to on-line forms is through the College Record System; Banner.  How, and when, you gain access to these forms varies by class. The links below will help connect you to the forms available.  Please note; the on-line forms are NOT printable forms. These forms must be completed and submitted through the web-site. For a printable list of immunization requirements please click on the ‘immunization’ link above.

Graduates School of Arts and Sciences, Masters of Arts in Liberal Studies (MALS), Thayer School of Engineering, and Center for the Evaluative Clinical Sciences (CECS) may not have access to the on-line system until they arrive on campus.  They should use the link provided below to access guide-forms for completing requirements using the link indicated below.

Paper forms for Undergraduates Only:

*Athletic Physical Form:  Undergraduate students who wish to participate in NCAA or Rugby will be required to complete this form.  If you’re not sure on participation at this time but may consider participating once you are on campus, we recommend completing the form prior to arriving on campus. Undergraduates who do not plan on participating do not need to complete this form.

*Special Form for Minors:  Students who will be under the age of 18 on registration day must have their parents/guardian complete the Special Form for Minors

Note: When you give a form to someone else to complete, such as a doctor or your health insurance plan representative (see Dartmouth Student Group Health Plan link), we recommend that you request the form(s) be returned to you when complete. This allows you to track your forms and prevent others from causing missed deadlines by sending in paperwork late.  Obtaining a personal copy of the forms/records is recommended as well to bring to campus in case of any transmittal/mail delays.
