The University of Hawaiʻi has partnered with Med+Proctor, a free service that will handle all of the Immunization Verification processes for the University. Starting Summer 2023, all incoming students will need to submit Health Clearances through Med+Proctor.

To submit your records for clearance, use the following instructions to create your Med+Proctor account:

Step One: Register

Step Two: Gather your documents

  • If you have your health clearance records, you may upload that to Med+Proctor. Or if documentation is not available, you may download the UH Health Clearance Form and have a licensed medical provider complete the form. (A licensed provider can sign the form; it does not have to be the provider who originally vaccinated you.)

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. (If you have proof of immunization from a pharmacy, you may upload those and Med+Proctor will be able to verify this information.)

Questions and Support

  • If you have difficulty using MedProctor, you may contact MedProctor between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Central Time, Monday through Friday. You may also reach a representative by email at: help@medproctor.com. MedProctor also offers LiveChat services Monday-Friday 8am-5pm CST.

What are the immunization requirements?

Immunization requirements include proof of immunity from Measles, Mumps, and Rubella (MMR), Chickenpox (Varicella) and Tetanus-Diphtheria-Pertussis (Tdap).

  • MMR
    • Submit documents that show you had two doses of MMR. Your first dose must have been given on or after your first birthday and the second dose must have been given at least 4 weeks after the first dose.
    • MMR requirements may be waived if you were born before 1957.
  • Varicella
    • Submit documents that show you had two doses of Varicella. Your first dose must have been given on or after your first birthday and the second dose must have been given at least 4 weeks after the first dose.
    • Varicella requirements may be waived if you were born in the US before 1980.
  • Tdap
    • Submit documents that show you had one dose of Tdap on or after age 10.
Can I submit MMR titers instead of documentation of 2 MMRs?

No, although positive titers for Measles and for Rubella are accepted, the Hawaii DOH does not accept the Mumps titers. Therefore, documentation of 2 MMRs are required.

Where can I receive these immunizations if I am unable to locate my immunization records?
  • Your primary care provider, Kaiser, Military clinic
  • Any clinic, pharmacy, or urgent care that provides immunizations
  • The Leeward CC Student Health Center. We are located in AD-223. Our address is 96-045 Ala ‘Ike Street, Pearl City, HI 96782. We are open Monday through Friday from 8:00 am to 4:30 pm.
I am currently not in the United States. Is it possible to meet the Leeward CC health clearance requirements before coming to begin school?

Yes! To meet TB requirements, you may submit any TB clearance done on or after the age of 16 as long as it was done in the US. TB risk assessments must have been done using the State of Hawaii Risk Assessment Questionnaire (PDF) . Or you may get the TB blood test called the QuantiFERON. This blood test may be done outside of the US. To meet immunization requirements, you may submit your childhood immunization record or be re-immunized where you are.
