Immunization Forms

The Henry Wise Wellness Center is still accepting immunization records for all students. Any students who have not yet submitted their immunization records, entrance medical history forms or meningitis waivers should submit the forms as soon as possible to avoid holds being placed on their accounts for the Spring 2009 semester. Please call 301-860-4170 for any questions. Forms can be faxed to 301-860-4179.

If you have already submitted your immunization forms but recently received a letter stating that your forms are missing, please confirm receipt of these materials with the Wellness Center after January 7, 2009 when we re-open after the holidays. We will extend the grace period until the second week school re-opens to resolve any outstanding issues and to avoid holds on registration..

We apologize for any inconvenience. Happy holidays!!!
