There are no fees charged for illness and injury treatment received in the Student Health Center. However, care by community providers such as laboratory, x-ray, private physicians/specialist in the community, hospital emergency department visits or hospital admissions are subject to private payment or insurance coverage. It is very important that all students be covered by adequate health insurance and be knowledgeable about accessing that coverage. Expenses associated with unexpected serious illness or injury can have a great impact on college financial plans if health insurance coverage is absent or inadequate.
Students may choose to retain their own existing insurance policy or select the policy provided through the University.
Information on the 2008/09 University Policy will be available shortly. (7/1/08)
