Immunization Requirements


To ensure a healthy and safe campus community, if you plan to enroll in at least one in-person class, live on campus, or access in-person services or facilities on Stony Brook’s campuses, you are required to comply with mandatory immunization requirements. 

If you have not submitted the required immunization records,there is a registration hold on your SOLAR account, and you cannot register for classes until that hold is removed. The registration hold will be removed once you complete and submit the requirements noted below. Please submit all immunization records to the Wolfie Health Portal immediately to have optimal selection of classes. 

  • After your medical records are reviewed, if any information is incomplete, a message will be sent to your Stony Brook email address as a secure message from noreply@stonybrook.edu. Please make sure you add this email address to your contacts to make sure messages do not go to your spam folder.
  • To facilitate possible future messaging, please be sure to "opt-in" to receive text messages. You can do so by clicking on the "Forms" tab in the Wolfie Health Portal, and scrolling down to select "Text Messaging Opt-in."
