Immunization Compliance

All immunization compliance documentation must be electronically submitted through your student Patient Portal. Your student Patient Portal is connected to the Florida Shots state immunization registry so your immunizations may already be on file. If you have not been cleared (red dot next to Immunizations tab), you will need to: 1) enter your immunization dates; and 2) upload supporting documents validating those dates in the student Patient Portal.
