4 Step Process to Complete Your Health Requirements for Lehigh University Arrival

Call your primary healthcare provider to schedule an appointment to have a physical exam completed and to have your immunization record filled out.

**ONLY our official Lehigh University forms will be accepted.**

  • Use the opportunity of visiting your healthcare provider to discuss any health conditions you may have and how you can be prepared to manage these conditions while you are at school.
  • Before leaving your healthcare provider's office, ensure that all sections of the required forms are completed, signed, and dated where indicated.
  • Be sure to add your full legal name and birth date to both pages.
