WPI provides a process for students to submit a request for a medical or religious exemption for all required vaccinations. Students must complete a Vaccine Exemption Form and specify whether they are asking for a medical or religious exemption. If a student requests a medical exemption, they must upload a Medical Provider Exemption Letter from their healthcare provider in addition to the Vaccine Exemption Form. See the instructions below. 

To access and upload the exemption form, please complete the following steps: 

1. Download, print, complete, and sign the Student Vaccination Exemption Form.
2. To upload the completed form, log into the WPI Student Health Portal
3. Select the upload tab; scroll down to see the drop-down list of documents available for upload.
4. Select "Student Vaccine Exemption Form" and upload the completed exemption form.
5. Select "Medical Provider Exemption Letter" from the drop-down list, select file, and upload the exemption letter if required. 

The preferred method is electronic upload to our secure health portal. To log in, use your WPI username (not your full email address) and password. Remember, always keep hard copies of these documents for your records.

Please log into the WPI Student Health Portal. After logging in with your WPI credentials, please click on the "forms" tab on the left side menu. Complete the New Student TB Risk Assessment 2025". Once complete, you will be instructed on next steps.

If you are determine to be at high risk for tuberculosis based on the online form, you will need to reach out to your medical provider at home to conduct the necessary screening test(s). Your medical provider will need to complete the following form: 

Our staff will review your answers and reach out to you directly if any additional actions need to be taken.

Ideally, we can suggest ways for you to get your vaccine prior to coming to campus, such as going to a travel clinic or urgent care clinic. Otherwise you will have to make arrangements to get your vaccine as soon as you arrive in the United States, however, this is for extenuating circumstances only. Student Health Services typically arranges vaccination clinics once/year, typically in October, when you can get many of your vaccines (please check with your insurance company regarding coverage of vaccines). Otherwise, it will be your responsibility to get all of your required vaccines. 

All students enrolled at least 3/4 time are required by Massachusetts State law to enroll in the Student Health Insurance or be covered by a health insurance plan with comparable coverage. To ensure compliance with Massachusetts law, all students registered for 7 or more credit hours will be automatically billed for the Student Health Insurance Plan. Students must actively attend classes for at least the first 31 days from the start of classes to remain eligible for the WPI SHIP. Students enrolled in only online courses are not eligible for the plan. To read the details of this law, click here. 

Information about the WPI Student Health Insurance Plan including the benefits, find a doctor tool, and the waiver and enrollment forms can be found at www.universityhealthplans.com/WPI. 

Students must submit a waiver or enrollment form at www.universityhealthplans.com/WPI by the deadline of August 31, 2025. 

Please note, health insurance information sent to the Student Health Center or Athletic Office does not get conveyed to the Bursars Office, and therefore does not activate the waiver process.  In addition to, and separate from providing insurance information to the Student Health Center or Athletic Office students must submit the annual health insurance waiver form at www.universityhealthplans.com/WPI.

Waiver and enrollment questions should be directed to University Health Plans at 877-514-2091 or info@univhealthplans.com. 

As long as the physical is within the last calendar year and signed (electronic or e-signature is fine), we will accept them. Immunization records also need to have a signature of authorized personnel. If you had titers drawn because you do not have documentation of vaccines or illnesses, please also submit these blood results.

Please make sure to upload documentation of the required forms and immunization documents as soon as possible if they are scheduled after the deadline. You will continue to receive regular communication from our office until your medical record is complete, and you are compliant with all of our required vaccines and health forms. 

If you have a physical exam from last year, you can upload that to the WPI Student Health Portal until you obtain the updated document. 

Please call WPI Student Health Services (SHS) at 508-831-5520 to discuss any specific questions.
