A message from University Health Services at UW-Madison(UHS):

As we prepare to welcome students to campus, it’s important that your student shares their vaccination records through the secure MyUHS portal. If a vaccine-preventable illness like measles occurred on campus, state public health laws require students to quarantine if we don't have proof of immunity.

For more information on medical clearances and instructions on how to upload vaccination records, please visit: https://www.uhs.wisc.edu/about/medicalclearance/

*If you are from Wisconsin, your student can check the Wisconsin Immunization Registry for their vaccination records. If you are from another U.S. state, navigate to your state’s immunization website using this portal. You may also contact your primary care provider to obtain your student’s records.

If you have any questions, please reach out to UHS at [email protected].
Thank you for doing your part to protect not only your student's health, but the health of our entire Badger community. We look forward to welcoming your student on campus!

There's nothing like the love of a mama bear (except maybe a mama badger). Happy Mother's Day to all of the moms, grandmothers, and mother-figures in our Badger family!
