2. Health Clearance

The State of Hawaii Department of Health (DOH), the Hawai‘i Administrative Rules, Chapter 11-157 requires all students to meet health requirements before they attend any post-secondary institution in the State of Hawaii.

The health clearances must be from a U.S. Licensed Medical Doctor (MD), Doctor of Osteopathy (DO), Advanced Practiced Registered Nurse (APRN), or Physician Assistant (PA). You can download the Health Clearance Form and take it to your physician for completion. Once completed, please submit immunization clearances via Med+Proctor.
Students without the required health clearances will be allowed to register for online courses only.

3. Where do I submit?

MED+PROCTOR

The University of Hawaiʻi has partnered with Med+Proctor for the clearance of Health Immunization Records. As of Spring 2023, all incoming students are required to use Med+Proctor to submit their Health Clearance/Immunization records.
To submit your records for clearance, use the following instructions to create your Med+Proctor account:
Step One: Register
  • Ensure you have been admitted and have a UH Student ID number and have created your UH username before completing this process. Click here if you need to create your UH Username. You can find your UH ID number in your acceptance email.

Step Three: Upload
  • Once you've collected all the necessary documents and or your form has been completed and signed by a healthcare provider, log back into your account and upload it to Med+Proctor.
