Student Health Services Update

As a result of ongoing organizational changes and current staff vacancies, Health Services is temporarily operating with significantly reduced capacity. At this time, we are unable to offer medical appointments, consultation, or other health-related assistance to students due to a lack of clinical personnel.

To help support student healthcare needs during this period, we have compiled a list of community healthcare resources and providers below. Students are encouraged to review these options for medical care, urgent health concerns, and other health related services.
