Health Center Holds
- A student will have a Health Center hold if the student has failed to provide complete documentation of immunizations in accordance with Massachusetts state law.
- Deadline for providing this information are as follows: the end of June for undergraduate students entering in the following Fall; the beginning of December for undergraduate students entering in the following Spring; one month prior to the beginning of a Graduate student or Law student’s program.
- Health Center holds will prevent students from registering for an upcoming semester. The Health Center hold also will prevent a student's ability to complete "I Am Here”.
