UVA Medicine requirements

Common questions about UVA Medicine requirements

Does UVA Medicine accept QuantiFERON-TB Gold Plus for TB screening?

Yes — UVA 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 UVA Medicine accept titers as proof of immunity?

Yes — UVA 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.

Where do UVA Medicine students upload immunization and clearance documentation?

UVA Medicine uses HealthyHoos Portal (UVA Student Health and Wellness). 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 UVA Medicine?

UVA 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 UVA Medicine's published source for the current term. Practiclear cannot guarantee delivery against any specific institutional deadline.
