Students are required to complete the immunization form that is marked as a requirement in the Student Health Portal. New York State requires two MMR vaccinations and one Meningococcal ACWY vaccination (within the last 10 years)

If you are an athlete, you may have additional forms available and marked as required for you to complete in your Student Health Portal

If you are an international student, you will have one additional blood test for tuberculosis that is required. 

If you are a commuter student, registered for 6 or more credits during the semester, you will need to show verification of two MMR vaccinations. You are also required to have one Meningococcal ACWY vaccination (within the last 10 years), or two Meningitis B vaccinations. You may waive the meningococcal vaccination by acknowledging the risks and possible health implications of contracting meningitis, and signing the form in the Student Health Portal.

If you are a student only registered for online courses during the semester, there are no immunization requirements.

All students will need to submit health insurance information in their Student Health Portal

How do I transfer college credits from high school?

The Office of the Registrar only accepts college credits taken in high school through dual enrollment programs with other college institutions. If you received college credit, please order an official transcript from that college/university and send it to the Keuka College Registrar’s Office. If you took AP Exams while in high school, please go to the College Board website to order your scores and send them to Keuka College. Once they receive your transcript/AP scores, they will be able to apply your transfer credit accordingly. All official transcripts must be sent directly from the institution. The Registrar’s Office will not accept transcripts from students/parents/guardians.

Do student-athletes have additional health forms to complete?

Yes – as new student-athletes, you are required to fill out (5) forms and submit documentation of a sickle cell solubility test* (per the NCAA) by July 15 to participate in athletics. The following forms will be available in the 'My Forms' section of the Student Health Portal:

  • Sports Medicine Consent Form 
  • Sports Medicine Health History Record 
  • Student-Athlete Concussion Statement
  • Health Insurance Information 

Student-Athletes will also need to complete the Keuka College Student Athlete Physical Form 

Completed forms should be submitted through the Student Health Portal in the 'Documentation' section.
