Message from the Student Health Center

Congratulations and Welcome to Pepperdine

The Student Health Center is here to serve your medical needs during your time as a student at Pepperdine. Our medical and administrative teams operate much like your family doctor's office, offering many services, including care for illness and injury, women's and men's health, dermatology, immunizations, labs, in-house testing, nutrition, and massage therapy. In addition, the SHC offers specialized clinics such as flu vaccination, travel medicine, and STI/HIV testing. We are delighted you have joined our community and look forward to serving you on campus.

New Student Requirements

 Your first contact with the Student Health Center (SHC) will likely be completing the University Immunization Requirement prior to arriving on campus. Please visit the University Immunization Requirement website for detailed instructions and use your Patient Portal to complete these steps prior to your arrival at Pepperdine.

In the unique instance when a student is unable to complete the required vaccines and/or testing needed to clear their immunization requirement prior to arriving on campus, the SHC will administer immunizations during New Student Orientation (NSO). Completing the above requirements before arriving on campus, however, helps avoid delays in class registration and missing out on NSO activities.
