Immunization
As a condition of enrollment, USF requires immunizations for specific student populations. USF believes immunizations help maintain the long-term health of our campus and the greater University of San Francisco community.
Students must submit their immunization records through Med+Proctor. Please note: students only need to provide their USF email, student ID and name to create their account. After registering your information and completing your free online profile, you may choose to pay an optional one-time fee of $10 for membership benefits, but it is not required.

Exemptions for MMR
Exemptions for the MMR immunization can be granted due to a medical condition only. The student must provide a letter from a healthcare provider, signed on official medical office stationery and including the official stamp from the office, stating the medical reason(s) why the student is not able to receive the Measles/Mumps and/or Rubella vaccine(s), and indicate if this is a temporary or permanent condition. Med+Proctor provides medical waivers for individuals meeting this criterion. These are available for download within the student profile “documents” section.
