Welcome to the University of Miami!

This is a reminder that you must submit your immunization records to us before you arrive on campus.  Most students have received the required immunizations in the past, and can obtain immunization records from their medical provider, high school, or prior university. 

Please visit our website for additional information including immunization forms and instructions on uploading forms.

You should have received an activation code email from MyChart a few days ago. Please check your junk mail in case it went there. If you did not receive an email or if you need further assistance with MyUHealthChart, please call the MyChart support line at 877-448-1773. 

Please review the complete information about the Student Health Insurance Plan offered by Aetna Student Health.

If opting to waive the insurance, students (or their designee) can submit a waiver request via the Aetna student portal. To submit your waiver, please have your EMPLID, date of birth, and current health insurance ID card ready. Students will receive a waiver approval or denial based on their insurance coverage within 5 business days of their submission.  

Starting Fall 2024 all new students (including transfer students) with Out of State HMO plans do not meet the criteria for waiver unless the policy provides comprehensive health benefits beyond emergency and urgent care during the time that you will attend the University of Miami in the Miami area.

If your waiver is approved, the $4,041 insurance charge will be waived from your account before the first tuition bill is generated. Please remember that waivers must be renewed each Fall semester.

In addition, if you will be less than 18 years of age when you arrive on campus, please complete the minor consent form and upload to us.

Please disregard this email if you will not be attending UM or are enrolled in the Uonline or certificate program.

Thank you for your cooperation,
