Student Services
Student Health Services

Located on campus in the Student Health Services Building at 2815 Cates Avenue, the facility is staffed by full-time physicians, registered nurses, and other medical support personnel. Counseling is also available for students in a group or individual setting to help deal with stress or other issues.
Medical History and Immunizations
This is done online through the Healthy PackPortal on the Student Health Services website.
Note: Health insurance is mandatory for all students. If you have private health insurance, you must submit an online waiver to StudentBlue that shows evidence of existing credible coverage, or you will be automatically enrolled and charged the premium.
