First-Year Student-Athlete Medical Forms

As an integral part of our preventative health care efforts, all student-athletes must complete additional athletic pre-participation medical requirements before they will be allowed to participate in any team practice. These requirements are set by the NCAA and are separate from the requirements for admission to the university. All forms and documentation must be submitted by August 1st.

  • If you are unsure when your first practice is, please contact your coach.

Instructions

  • Follow the link to the Lauderdale Health Center Health requirements for first year students. Follow their instructions on submitting a physical.
  • If you have already submitted a physical to the Lauderdale Health Center, check that it is within the 6 month period.
    • If your physical is not within the NCAA required 6 month period you will have to obtain a new physical from your personal physician and resubmit to the Lauderdale Health Center
      • If you are unable to obtain another physical due to insurance limitations or some other circumstance you may contact the Lauderdale Health Center to schedule a sports physical. However they may only have limited availability over the summer months.

We will begin officially reviewing student-athlete medical requirements after August 1st, however we may make periodic reviews over the summer. If you are missing any of the required information, we will let you know what you are missing.
