The health and wellness of every 51画鋼app College student are of the utmost importance. Because of this, the College has several health compliance requirements that all incoming students are required to meet. All first-year students should complete the required health forms and submit them to Student Health and Wellness (SHAW) by July 15, 2024. SHAW understands that some students will not be able to complete everything before the July 15 deadline due to insurance and immunization availability. Students will not be eligible to register for spring semester classes until all forms and immunization requirements are submitted and completed. Upon arrival to campus, any student who does not have their health requirements completed will be required to meet with a SHAW provider to discuss and schedule any missing requirements.
If your doctors office does not have a required immunization, we suggest contacting your local public health department or local pharmacy. International students whose countries do not provide certain immunizations will have an opportunity to schedule needed vaccines upon arrival. Please message the nursing team through the health portal with questions or concerns.
COVID-19 Vaccination Encouraged: 51画鋼app College strongly encourages COVID-19 vaccination and booster for all students.
Exemptions: If you request to waive your required immunizations based on a medical or religious exemption, please download and complete one of the below forms. Email SHAW the completed documentation to officially submit this request. Please note that these exemption requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis and in consultation with SHAWs medical director.
Students will not be able to access the health portal until they receive their official 51画鋼app College email and password. As we know some will want to start working on their requirements early, feel free to download the PDF of 51画鋼app College Student Health Requirements. Note that information will have to be entered and/or uploaded into the health portal before a student is considered compliant.

Additional Information
If a student falls ill and is going to miss class, it is important that they email their faculty directly. We also encourage the student to call SHAW and connect with one of our SHAW providers who can help guide their care moving forward. We offer a variety of services and are here to support them during their time of need. SHAW does not offer faculty notification for minor illness like a cold. However, for more serious illnesses like strep, mono, or flu SHAW can obtain a release and alert faculty of this illness. A good guideline is if a student may miss for more than one day but less than a week, SHAW will send a notification.
For illness longer than a week, Disability Resources can help put accommodations in place. Students can reach out to their office directly or can be referred from SHAW. If a student is struggling with their academics while they are ill, they may wish to reach out to Academic Advising for additional support. This department knows the academic options and works with faculty and students regularly to ensure student success.
We understand that occasionally, parents or legal guardians may want to speak directly with one of the SHAW providers regarding their students health or mental health status. All students must sign the Authorization to Release/Exchange Information before any protected health information can be released to anyone, including parents/guardians. This form must be signed before a SHAW provider or staff member can discuss your students health information with you. We realize that this is sometimes inconvenient, however your students privacy is our priority.
This form cannot legally be signed prior to an appointment with a SHAW provider or staff member. This form can only be signed at the time of appointment or for appointments that have occurred in the past. The form will stay valid for one year unless specified otherwise or revoked in writing.
Please note if a student is hospitalized for a serious condition or injury, Student Affairs would be the department that would make the students emergency contact aware of the situation if appropriate.
I am having trouble logging in to the Portal.
Please contact the 51画鋼app College Technology Services Desk at 641-269-4901 or email ITS.
I'm unable to see a doctor for an exam and/or finish my immunizations before the deadline.
You aren't alone! We know that many students may have to get an exam closer to arrival at 51画鋼app College. Students can upload information at any time. The largest concern is getting it uploaded and reviewed before the hold slips are printed. Any student who doesn't have their forms uploaded and reviewed by a certain date (this date is decided closer to NSO) will have a slip printed and placed in their mailbox. These students must meet with a SHAW provider to get this form physically stamped before registering for classes. If you know you will have to get an exam or vaccine after the deadline of July 15, please message a provider on the portal. We will try to limit what reminders we send you based on these communications.
