Requirements for Students

• You can take a photo of your vaccination card or get a digital copy from the state health site at myvaccinerecord.cdph.ca.gov
• In order to satisfy the booster requirement, your vaccination card must show the date and type of booster received. 
• Save the digital photo or file to the computer or device that you will use to log in to the PyraMED health portal.

• Open the Apps section of MyPortal and click on the tile for PyraMED Health Services.
• If you don't see the PyraMED tile in MyPortal, you can access the PyraMED system on the web at deanza.studenthealthportal.com
• If you are prompted to sign in, use your eight-digit student ID number (also known as your Campuswide ID or CWID) and MyPortal password.

Note: You will not be able to log in to the PyraMED system until you have been assigned a registration date, which will be posted in MyPortal. For high school students seeking dual enrollment, this will not occur until you have submitted your High School Permission Form. (See the steps for dual enrollment.)

If you haven't already completed the Informed Consent-De Anza College form, you will need to do this before you upload your vaccination record. This shows us that you understand that your medical records are confidential. (If you completed this form previously, you don't need to do it again.)

When the PyraMED homepage appears on your screen, click on My Forms to open the forms page (or click on “You have pending forms”)

Next, click to open the Informed Consent-De Anza College form

Fill out the form completely – including all fields – and click the Submit button at the bottom.

Now you're ready to submit your proof of vaccination.

Once you've completed the Consent for Treatment form, you're ready to upload your vaccination record. Keep the PyraMED screen open to do this. 

(If you've already uploaded your vaccination record, skip ahead to the next step: Complete the Booster Submission Form.)

• First, click the My Forms tab to return to the list of forms. (We are no longer using the Document Upload tab for vaccination or booster documents.)
• Next, click to open the COVID-19 Vaccine Submission-De Anza College form

When the Vaccine Submission form opens, please enter the requested information, including: 

• Enter the dates you received each shot of the COVID-19 vaccine.
  • You don’t need to list any booster shots
  • Use the fields for the type of vaccine you received – i.e., Pfizer, Moderna or Johnson & Johnson (also known as Janssen)
  • If you received a different vaccine outside the United States, use the field for “AstraZeneca” to list the dates for any WHO-approved vaccine that you received
• Enter the location where you received the vaccine
  • Provide the clinic or store address if you know it, or as much information as you can
• Enter the lot number for each vaccination shot
  • You’ll find these listed on your vaccine card
• Upload a photo or digital copy of your vaccine card  
  
  • Click Select File to select the file on your device
  • Click the Submit button and then click the Confirm button

When the upload is complete, you will see a confirmation message on the My Forms page, and the Vaccine Submission form will no longer be listed.

Note: It may take up to three days for Student Health Services to verify your documents before you are cleared to register for on-campus classes.

Before coming to campus, you also need to upload your booster record if you are eligible for a booster. 

Keep the PyraMED screen open to do this.

• Click the My Forms tab to return to the list of forms. (We are no longer using the Document Upload tab for vaccination or booster documents.)
• Click to open the COVID-19 Booster Submission-De Anza College form

• Enter the location where you received the booster
  • Provide the clinic or store address if you know it, or as much information as you can
• Enter the lot number for your booster shot
  • You’ll find these listed on your vaccine card
• Upload a photo or digital copy of your vaccine card that includes your booster information
  (Note: Even though you previously uploaded your card when you submitted your vaccination form, you must upload the card again to satisfy the booster requirement.)
  
  • Click Select File to select the file on your device
  • Click the Submit button and then click the Confirm button

When the upload is complete, you will see a confirmation message on the My Forms page.

Note: It may take a few days for the Student Health Services staff to verify your documents. They will contact you if they need more information.

• Upload your vaccination record at least three days before you plan to register for any on-campus class. You will not be able to register for on-campus classes until your vaccination record has been verified.
• For U.S. students, your vaccination record must show you received two doses of the Pfizer or Moderna vaccine, or one dose of the Johnson & Johnson (Janssen) vaccine.
• International students attending on an F-1 visa may submit documentation in English that they have received the full course of a vaccine approved by the World Health Organization (WHO).

Once you've logged in to the PyraMED system, click on the My Profile tab in the upper left, then select Immun. History and click to download your Immunization History record. 

When you review your Immunization History:

• You should see your COVID-19 vaccination listed under Vaccination History. (It may take one or two days after you upload your record before it appears here.)
  
• If you have a religious or medical exemption, you should see a listing under Exemptions.
