Certificates of Immunization

A licensed healthcare provider must complete the form; Office Stamp, Name, Date, and Signature are required. Other forms of health records will be accepted from healthcare providers if all information is documented clearly and in English. Documentation may be mailed, faxed, delivered to University Health Services, or emailed to uhs@clayton.edu. Documentation may also be entered in the UHS Patient Portal, if the student has already been issued a university login.
