How to read an assigned requirement and prepare a supported upload.
Your program decides your requirements. Each one shows what to submit and when it expires in your CareCard account.
First, share with your institution
Your Requirements page stays empty until you connect to a program. Open Share with institution, choose your institution, campus, and program, and submit the request.
As soon as you submit — Even before a coordinator approves you — your program's assigned requirements appear on your Requirements page, so you can start gathering and uploading right away. Full steps: Share With Institution.
How a requirement is met
Every requirement follows the same four steps:
- It appears on your Requirements page — Once you share with your institution, each requirement shows its name, instructions, and expiry date.
- You gather the record — The official document that proves it. Some records take weeks, so start early.
- You attach and submit — One or more supported files, up to 50 MB each.
- A reviewer decides — Approved evidence counts; anything else comes back with a comment.
An approval with an expiry date comes round again later.
Prepare your upload
- Read the requirement first — Its name, instructions, expiry, and any comment.
- Use a complete, readable official record — All pages, not cropped, blurred, or password-protected.
- Make the key details visible — Name, test or vaccine, result, and dates.
- Attach what the requirement asks for — You can add more than one file, but don't merge unrelated records.
