Health Services Eligibility

Eligibility for Services

The Center for Student Wellness fee is $220.00 per regular semester. This fee is assessed to undergraduate students enrolled in 6 or more credit hours and graduate students enrolled in 9 or more credit hours. Students not assessed this required fee, e.g., undergraduates taking under 6 credit hours and graduates under 9 credit hours, may access all regular services offered at the Center for Student Wellness by completing a Voluntary Semester Fee Agreement. Summer students may access services as the Center for Student Wellness since all fees are rolled into the regular summer credit hour fee. Office visits are offered at no charge. Some services, e.g., laboratory, medical supplies/procedures, will incur a minimal fee (pdf - 170 KB).
