How to Comply with the UC Immunization Requirements:

  1. Submit your Statement of Intent to Register SIR/SLR.
  2. Please allow 2 business days after submitting your SIR/SLR before attempting to access the MyStudentChart.
  3. Be prepared! Gather all the information you will need to complete your requirements online.
  4. Go to the UCLA Immunization Requirements website and click on MyStudentChart.
  5. Sign into MyStudentChart using the "Sign in with your MyUCLA Logon ID" button.
  6. Once you are logged in, from the Home Page, click the Menu bar on the left-hand side. Scroll down and choose “Questionnaires.” Then, complete the Immunization Clearance, which also contains the annual TB testing requirement.
  7. Answer all required fields and upload supporting immunization records, including images, PDFs, laboratory tests and/or chest x-rays. The Immunization Worksheet for Outside Providers may be submitted in lieu of original immunization records but must be completed by your primary care provider.
  8. Once completed, it will need to be verified, and you can check your compliance and verification status online by logging in and selecting “Immunization Clearance Report” in the Menu drop-down list.
    1. When reviewing these reports, you’ll notice the “Overall Clearance Status” at the top. This will indicate whether you have submitted all required documentation—for example, it may say “Satisfied.” However, this does notconfirm whether the information has been verified.
    2. To check verification status, you’ll need to scroll to the bottom of the form and look for the “Immunization Compliance Verification” section. This is the definitive source for whether a student is officially cleared. Here's what to look for:
      • “All requirements reviewed and verified. Student is cleared.”→ All items have been submitted and verified.
      • “All submissions reviewed and verified. Student not cleared – requirements still pending.” → Documentation has been reviewed, but some items are still missing.
      • “None”→ The submitted documentation has not yet been reviewed. Please allow two weeks to complete.
  9. Once the verification status has been updated to “All requirements reviewed and verified. Student is cleared” you can print the report by click on the big print icon on the top left corner, a pop-up window will confirm your login information again.
  10. After logging in, in the header it will say "Print this page". This will allow you to print or save to PDF the Immunization Clearance Report to submit.

IMPORTANT: Once you have met all requirements and confirmed it has been verified, upload a copy of the Immunization Clearance Report to Box no later than September 12, 2025.
