The Health and Wellness Center is closed on Wednesday mornings for staff meetings, Student Affairs professional development and other trainings and meetings. We open at 12:30 pm on that day. We believe that consolidating the times that staff are in meetings & training into one morning will help students plan and will provide overall better access.

Need some ibuprofen on the weekend or evening but don't want to run to Walgreens to get it? There is a new vending machine in the Leonard Center that has common "needs" - everything from condoms (two types) to a thermometer to ibuprofen. Check out the list of products. Filled locally from St. Paul Corner Drug! Let us know if there is something you would like to see in the machine.

Studying Abroad?
Students should note that if a physical or a form with a physician's signature is required for your study abroad program, you will need to schedule your physical with an off-campus provider. Health Services is not able to offer physical exams; we can provide copies of immunization records or other information from your health file upon your written request.
For a list of local options, check our web page that lists local providers. As always, when selecting an off-campus provider, check your insurance to make sure that provider and the procedure is covered.
Travel clinics and other resources can be found at our web page for international travel clinics.
