Welcome to Health Services provided by Newton-Wellesley Collegiate Health!
Please note: a provider's signature is required on the health forms. Students are required to have had a physical on or after 8/1/21 and to have completed all required immunizations. Please call your doctor ASAP to book an appointment so that your submission is not delayed. You can complete this step even before you have the forms in hand!
All new students will be pre-registered in the Newton-Wellesley Hospital System (which Health Services is a part of) and must set up an online Patient Gateway account. This will be tied to your Wellesley College email.
You will receive a link via your Wellesley College email (before the end of May) to activate your online Patient Gateway account.
Follow the instructions carefully.
New student forms and paperwork will be sent to you through your Gateway account.
You will receive the forms within a week of activating your account.
You will get an alert in your Wellesley College email when you have a new Gateway message.
You will have received instructions how to do this with your original forms.
Forms must be completed and submitted at once. Partial submissions will not be reviewed.
Deadline for submission is JULY 1, 2022.
Once your forms are submitted, we will confirm receipt of them via a Patient Gateway message back to you.
Student housing eligibility requires that health forms must be complete prior to move in. Students who need additional medical appointments will be allowed to move in, but they must attend their appointments in order to maintain housing.
