Staff
The professional staff of Health Services is committed to meeting today's highest health standard. Registered Nurses are available to provide health care that is sensitive to the needs of all students. A certified Registered Nurse Practitioner is available Monday, Wednesday and Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., either by appointment or walk- in. This is an exceptional cost saving benefit for our students. A consulting physician is also available (off-campus) by appointment.
Health Records
All information is strictly confidential. Access to medical records is limited to Health Services personnel and may not be released without the student's written consent.
Once accepted for admission, all students are encouraged to submit a completed Health History, Physical & Immunization Form. No student will be seen for non-emergencies unless her/his record is on file.
Referral Off-Campus
Students requiring medical follow-up will be referred to appropriate services off-campus. Transportation and fees incurred are the responsibility of the student.
Insurance
All students are strongly encouraged to have health insurance. Health insurance is required of international students and student athletes. University-endorsed health insurance plans are available for purchase. Brochures and enrollment forms may be obtained at the Student Health Services Office or at the Office of the Vice President for Student Life.

Medical Excuses
Health Services does NOT issue medical excuses. Class attendance is an academic matter between a faculty member and student.

If a faculty member desires verification of a student's visit to Health Services, a form will be given to the student at the time of visit. NO OTHER INFORMATION will be given without the written consent of the student.
