Incoming/Transfer Student-Athlete Checklist

Incoming/Transfer Student-Athlete Checklist 

Please review the following requirements for incoming/transfer student-athletes below. 

  1. Log-in to your SportsWareOnLine account and enter the required information to complete your profile. Instructions for accessing and completing your profile can be found in this document. 

  1. Information on your yearly sports physical and concussion testing will be sent to you by the Calvin Sports Medicine Office. 

If you have any questions or concerns about anything (medical clearance, physicals, etc.) please email us at sportsmed@calvin.edu and we're happy to help. 

Additional Documentation 

You may need to submit additional documentation for certain medical conditions. If you had a serious injury requiring surgery in the past year or have an ongoing medical condition (i.e., asthma, diabetes, epilepsy, etc.), please submit a letter from your surgeon or managing physician that clears you for full participation or outlines any restrictions you may have. 

Substances that are generally purported to be performance enhancing and/or potentially harmful to the health and safety of the student-athlete have been banned by the NCAA. This means that medications commonly prescribed by physicians for the treatment of ADHD and asthma, among others, are banned without a medical exception. For more information about medical exception procedures and documentation, go to: https://www.ncaa.org/sports/2015/1/23/medical-exceptions-procedures.aspx.  

If you have questions about the status of your medications or medical exception procedures, please reach out to us and we’d be happy to review your situation with you. 

If you have any questions or concerns about your need for additional documentation, please email us at sportsmed@calvin.edu and we're happy to help.
