First Year Student Information
Each first year student-athlete at North Central College is required to submit proof of a recent physical examination and proof of insurance prior to their initial participation in intercollegiate athletics at North Central College.
For students entering North Central College during the 2009-2010 academic year,
you must complete your physical after June 1, 2009.
We highly recommend that the physical take place between June 1, 2009 and August 1, 2009. If you have already received your physical examination for entry into NCC for fall 2009, it may be necessary to have a second physical examination to meet NCAA rules; please contact Bob Simon, Head Athletic Trainer, with any questions.
Some important points to consider for the physical examination requirement:
* The physical exam must be signed by a health professional with an MD or DO credential. Physicals submitted with a signature by a nurse (RN) or chiropractor (DC) do not meet the standard for North Central College. Participation may be delayed if a physical examination is submitted without the proper documentation.
* All first year and transfer student-athletes should use the forms provided by the Dyson Wellness Center and indicate the sport(s) you will participate in during the 2009-2010 academic year. The forms should be returned no later than August 1, 2009. You need to complete the Medical History form and the Report of Health Evaluation form.
Due to NCAA rules, all student-athletes must have insurance coverage for athletic related injuries sustained while participating in intercollegiate athletics. Prior to any athletics participation, all student-athletes must complete the Medical History form and provide a copy of their current insurance card to the Athletic Training Staff. Included in the Medical History form is emergency contact information and an opportunity for you to disclose the name and contact information for your primary care physician (if applicable).
We encourage parents/guardians to complete the Medical History form with their son/daughter and explain provisions of the student's personal insurance plan.
Please forward a copy of your Medical History form, Report of Health Evaluation and proof of insurance to Bob Simon, Head Athletic Trainer, no later than August 1, 2009. To expedite processing, please send all documents together directly to the Athletic Training Department at North Central College, 30 N. Brainard St., Naperville, IL, 60540. We highly recommend that you make an additional copy of these documents and bring them to your first team meeting.
