EVMS — School of Medicine (MD)
EVMS Medicine (MD) requires Tuberculosis (TB), MMR, Varicella, Hepatitis B, Tdap / Td, and Influenza. Practiclear may help document 4 of these in a single Virginia draw (TB Screening Documentation, MMR Immunity Profile, Varicella IgG, Hep B Surface Antibody) — see matched products below. Documents typically upload via Student Health Immunization Portal (myportal.evms.edu/accepted/checklist/) — internal. Standard Acceptance/Confirmation Date June 10, deadline July 1 for the 60MED MD cohort; late-confirming students have 3 weeks from confirmation.

EVMS Medicine requirements
Common questions about EVMS Medicine requirements
Does EVMS Medicine accept QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus for TB screening?
Yes — EVMS Medicine's published clinical-clearance requirements list interferon-gamma release assays (IGRA / QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus) among accepted TB screening tests. See the school's published source for the complete list of accepted tests.
Does EVMS Medicine accept titers as proof of immunity?
Yes — EVMS Medicine's published immunization requirements accept quantitative titers as evidence for MMR, Varicella, and Hepatitis B surface antibody. Practiclear can order these titers in one Virginia draw and issue clinician-signed documentation when the reviewed result supports the requirement. The school's source page lists the exact accepted evidence.
Does EVMS Medicine require a Hep B post-series antibody titer?
Yes — EVMS Medicine's published Hepatitis B requirement includes a post-series surface antibody (anti-HBs) titer to confirm vaccine response. EVMS Medicine's threshold: Quantitative Hepatitis B Surface Antibody Titer required (qualitative not accepted); specific numeric threshold not stated on public page. The school's published source describes the exact evidence required.
Where do EVMS Medicine students upload immunization and clearance documentation?
EVMS Medicine uses Student Health Immunization Portal (myportal.evms.edu/accepted/checklist/) — internal. Practiclear provides clinician-signed documentation as a PDF that students upload through the school's existing process; Practiclear does not submit documentation on the student's behalf.
What is the clinical-clearance deadline at EVMS Medicine?
EVMS Medicine's published requirements describe their clearance deadline cadence — typically tied to clinical-rotation start dates and reviewed each academic term. Specific deadlines change by cohort and program track; confirm with EVMS Medicine's published source for the current term. Practiclear cannot guarantee delivery against any specific institutional deadline.
What public sources don't tell us
We list the gaps because they affect what you should bring to your clinical office. Always confirm the items below with the school's compliance office before ordering.
- Specific Hep B anti-HBs cutoff (e.g., ≥10 mIU/mL) not stated despite explicit "quantitative only" requirement
- Annual TB testing frequency (post-baseline) for medical students not explicitly stated
- N95 fit-testing policy not stated publicly
- COVID-19 mandate appears to have lapsed post-2024
