Complete Your Required Immunization Self-Report Form

Copies of personal medical or immunization records are not acceptable substitutes for the required Immunization Self-Report.

Have a Parent or Guardian Sign the Consent for Medical Treatment Form (If You Are Under Age 18)

Turning 18 after you move to campus?  Have a parent or guardian sign the Consent Form for Medical Treatment of Students Under Age 18. This allows for treatment through Student Health Services or by the MSU HealthTeam.

Plan For Prescription Medications and Refills

Bring enough of your current medication to get you through the first month of school as well as a copy of your prescription. Plan enough time for refills!

The MSU Health Care Pharmacy can deliver to residence halls and assist in the transfer of prescriptions. Learn more at pharmacy.msu.edu.

ADHD Prescriptions

Students already diagnosed with attention deficit disorder (ADD) or attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) can transition their ongoing ADD/ADHD medication management to a Student Health Services primary care physician. Learn more here.
