The mandatory health fee provides for insurance coverage should a student be
injured during a supervised, on-campus or school-related activity. Campus
insurance provides physician care for class related injuries. Please report
all accidents to the Health Center to receive first aid care and access
insurance coverage.
A $50 deductible will apply to each student claim filed and a $100
deductible will apply to each athletic claim filed.
This student insurance is secondary to any group, blanket franchise, group
practice, individual practice or other pre-payment coverages which means the
claim must be filed with primary insurance first.
Health Education Pamphlets & videos Speakers. Assistance in preparing class
projects.
Immunizations: Tetanus, Measles, Flu, Hepatitis B
Most services are on a walk-in basis. Some services such as personal
counseling, physical exams, and hearing tests are by appointment. No
appointment is necessary to see a registered nurse.
