Welcome to Javelina Nation

Texas A&M University-Kingsville

Congratulations on your acceptance to

Texas A&M University-Kingsville!

Now that you’re a part of Javelina Nation, here are the next steps on your path to joining us on campus.
Be sure to check your student email address for future communications!


Step 1: Set Up Your Blue & Gold Account

Blue & Gold will be your link to the TAMUK community. You will use this portal to register for Hoggie Days, apply for and accept Javelina Scholarships, accept your Financial Aid, register for classes, apply for on-campus housing, pay your tuition and fees, and complete other enrollment tasks.

Use your Student ID (for example, KUABC123) and create a password to join Blue & Gold. If you don't know your Student ID, please contact the Blue and Gold Central at 361-593-5372 or email us at bgc@tamuk.edu.


Step 2: Apply for Scholarships

With more than $1M in departmental scholarships available, Javelina Scholarships takes the guesswork out of discovering what you could qualify for. Just log in to Scholarship Universe using your Blue & Gold credentials, answer a few questions, and you’ll be instantly matched with opportunities tailored just for you.

While our priority deadline is March 1, we strongly encourage you to still submit your application! Additional funding often becomes available throughout the spring and summer, and we want to ensure you are in the pool for consideration.


Step 3: Upload your Bacterial Meningitis to MedProctor

Proof of a Bacterial Meningitis Vaccine. All new students are required to obtain and submit proof of bacterial meningitis vaccination or exemption 10 days prior to the first day of classes through the online portal Med+Proctor. If your vaccination has expired or we do not have your vaccination in our records, please expect to receive an invitation email from Med+Proctor to submit your bacterial meningitis record. Med+Proctor is a healthcare technology company that manages the immunization verification process and is an immunization compliance software for universities/colleges. Visit the TAMUK Bacterial Meningitis Vaccination Requirement webpage to learn about the submission process with Med+Proctor. If you have questions about the vaccination requirement or if you already submitted it to Med+Proctor, please call Student Health & Wellness at 361-593-3991.


Step 4: Review Housing Options

Learn, Live and Thrive in our Beautiful and Spacious Dorms. Not only will campus become your home away from home, TAMUK housing is affordable! Visit the  Housing Home Page for more information.
