Wilkes University Student-Athlete Pre-Participation Forms

Please carefully review the information below regarding required medical forms. You will not be cleared to participate if any of the information is incomplete and/or missing. The Wilkes University Athletic Training Staff will strictly enforce this policy.

University Health Form

Upon enrollment, all students are sent instructions on how to submit the Wilkes University Health Form through the student portal. Student-athletes are only required one physical form for both the school and athletics. The section labeled "Recommendations for Physical Activity" must be completed by the practitioner in order to be eligible for participation in athletics.

Returning student-athletes who have participated in Wilkes University Athletics and who already have a physical on file do not need to have another physical. Although one initial physical is only necessary upon enrollment, it is recommended that all student-athletes have an annual completed physical done by their family physician.

Please note that Wilkes University does not perform pre-participation physicals on campus.

The University health form can be accessed by logging in to the Wilkes University Student Health Portal under "Health and Wellness Services" or by following the link below:

Any student-athlete under the age of 18 must have accompanying parent/guardian signatures, when applicable.

All forms for freshmen, transfers, first-time student-athletes, and returning student-athletes must be submitted by the deadline. Student-athletes are encouraged to check their wilkes.edu e-mail accounts regularly for updates and deadlines regarding pre-participation paperwork.
