Health Clinic
The University Health Clinic, located in the University Clinic building between Runnels and Mayer Residence Halls on Johnson
Street, is available to all students at the University who are currently enrolled in academic course work for which semester
credit hours are awarded. The Clinic provides outpatient care Monday through Friday afternoon during the two long semesters
when school is in session. Hours vary during summer sessions. The Clinic services include staff physicians, nurse practitioners,
nursing care, pharmacy, and health education. While the Clinic is not equipped with an intensive care unit or elaborate diagnostic
or surgical services, routine medical needs of students are accommodated. A charge may be assessed students for injections and
medications not stocked in the pharmacy. However, there is no charge for examination, diagnosis, or consultation services provided
by the clinic staff.
All drugs stocked in the Clinic and prescribed by a University physician will be provided to students at no cost. Prescriptions written by University physicians requiring medications which are not stocked in the Clinic must be paid for by the student.
Students requiring medical services while the Clinic is closed should notify Campus Police or the Residence Hall Director for medical referral information.
All students attending the University who are enrolled in six or more semester credit hours are eligible for participation in a plan of accident and sickness insurance which supplements the University Health Clinic Services in major surgical, medical and accident benefits during both school term and vacation periods. Students who do not carry other comprehensive health insurance are strongly urged to enroll in a health care insurance plan, as the clinic cannot provide hospitalization or comprehensive health care coverage. Insurance information is available in the Student Life Office.
