Most services are covered by the Student Health Fee, and are provided without a copay.
Physician/Nurse Practitioner services are available to the student on a daily basis Monday through Friday during the academic year. During the eight weeks of summer session, the Student Health Center is staffed with a Registered Nurse to perform nursing duties only. There is no medical provider available during this eight week period of summer session.
Medical conditions that require continuous care, specialized or surgical, are handled either by referral or a return to the primary care physician at the student's expense. Medical Records are strictly confidential and are released only with a student's written consent.
