Health Records

As of May 17, 2023 GCC no longer requires proof of COVID-19 vaccination for students or employees, except for health occupations students.

GCC complies with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Regulations related to the immunization requirements of college students and Massachusetts General Laws for the immunization of college health science students as follows:

  • Full-time students under 30 years old taking 12 credits or more
  • All international students under 30 years old, regardless of credit load
  • All health occupations students regardless of age or credit load
    • Nursing, Practical Nursing, Paramedic, Medical Assistant, and Surgical Technology students must meet additional requirements and deadlines specified in their program documents

Immunization records may be submitted to the Health Records Office in-person or online using our Secure Document Upload. To submit records in person, bring a physical copy of your immunization records to the Health Records Office, which is located within the Office of Admission at C103 in GCC’s Main Building. To submit records online use the Secure Document Upload button to the right of this page. Immunization records will take 3-5 day to process.

New students in the first two categories must provide documentation of immunity as specified in the Immunization Records information below. Failure to comply with these requirements will result in a HOLD being placed on your record which will prevent you from adding or dropping classes.

Health occupation students must comply with the specific documents and immunization as outlined in their program documents. Health occupations students who miss deadlines jeopardize their placement in the intended program and well as their ability to continue in a program once started.

Medical and religious exemptions are allowed by the regulations and must be renewed annually. Please email healthrecords@gcc.mass.edu for more information.

Health Record Requests

This request form is required for us to release a copy of your immunization records to another facility or directly to you. If you have a CastleBranch account, you must obtain copies of your health records via your account. GCC will provide copies of Health Records only for students who pre-date or post-date the use of CastleBranch for health records information. We can provide by mail or fax. Please allow 3-5 working days from receipt of the completed form for processing your request.
