EVMS PA requirements
Common questions about EVMS PA requirements
Does EVMS PA accept QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus for TB screening?
Yes — EVMS PA'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 PA accept titers as proof of immunity?
Yes — EVMS PA'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 PA require a Hep B post-series antibody titer?
Yes — EVMS PA's published Hepatitis B requirement includes a post-series surface antibody (anti-HBs) titer to confirm vaccine response. EVMS PA's threshold: Quantitative HBsAb titer required (qualitative not accepted); specific number not stated. The school's published source describes the exact evidence required.
Where do EVMS PA students upload immunization and clearance documentation?
EVMS PA uses Student Health Immunization Portal (myportal.evms.edu/acceptedhp/checklist/). 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 PA?
EVMS PA'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 PA's published source for the current term. Practiclear cannot guarantee delivery against any specific institutional deadline.
