STATEMENT OF LEGAL RESIDENCE (SLR) DEADLINES
STUDENT HEALTH INSURANCE WAIVER All registered UC Merced students are automatically enrolled in the UC Student Health Insurance Plan (UC SHIP) in order to meet the University of California mandate that all UC students have health insurance coverage as a nonacademic condition of enrollment. However, if you have coverage through a major medical insurance plan that meets the University’s minimum criteria for health care and do not wish to be enrolled in UC SHIP, you can waive enrollment by submitting an online waiver application. Waiver applications can be submitted on the my.ucmerced.edu student portal during the fall or spring waiver periods. A new waiver application must be completed each academic year in the fall. Complete the Waiver Criteria Worksheet at health.ucmerced.edu/ waiverworksheet.pdf to help you gather the information you will need prior to completing the application. Visit health.ucmerced.edu/waiver for information.

PROOF OF IMMUNIZATION To comply with the University of California immunization requirement, all incoming students are required to complete a TB Risk Screening questionnaire and Immunizations Form to prove vaccination and/or immunity to certain vaccine-preventable diseases. You can find these items in the MyHealth portal at myhealth.ucmerced.edu . We strongly recommend that you meet TB and immunization requirements before you arrive on campus. Failure to submit proof of immunizations and TB compliance will result in a registration hold for the following semester . health.ucmerced.edu/immunizations
