Incoming Students

Welcome to App State! We are so excited you are joining the Mountaineer community. The Mary S. Shook Student Health Service is a primary care campus health clinic helping meet the needs of App State students

Important Dates

  • As soon as you register for classes: MedPortal, your gateway to health services, opens.
  • July 1st: Deadline for submitting your immunization records, health history form and student insurance waiver or enrollment through MedPortal.

Required Enrollment Steps

These are the necessary steps in your journey to becoming an official Mountaineer. Please complete these required enrollment steps in your MedPortal by July 1st.

  • Submit Immunization Records

    Get the required immunizations (opens in a new tab) from your healthcare provider, if you have not already done so. Before attending classes and living in university housing, students must provide an immunization record as required by University Policy and North Carolina law (opens in a new tab). Immunization records can be uploaded through the MedPortal, faxed to 828-262-6958, mailed, or emailed to immunizations@appstate.edu 

  • Complete your Health History Form 

    Students are no longer required to complete the Health History Form before enrolling. Students will receive a notification to complete their Health History Form before their first appointment.

  • Select your Health Insurance Option

    Students are required to have health insurance and must enroll in or waive the mandatory health insurance each semester. Students are automatically charged for the Student Health Insurance Plan when they register for classes and must provide proof of insurance in order to reverse the cost.

    Need help? If you have questions about selecting your health insurance option, email studentinsurance@appstate.edu or call 828-262-7463.
