Can I get medications from the Clinic?

Sample prescription and over-the-counter medicines may be offered if available. Other prescription items may be purchased at any local pharmacy. Prices on medicines will vary between pharmacies and students are encouraged to shop around for the best prices with the services they need.

 

Does the Health Service issue excuses from class?

The Health Service does not issue routine excuses from class, but follows the ruling of the Faculty Senate. If a professor has notified his/her class at the beginning of the semester that a note is required to verify absence due to illness it can obtained at the time of the visit. A note can only be obtained if patient is seen by a physician. The note does not constitute an excuse, which is a decision between the student and the professor.

 

Does SFA provide a student insurance plan?

Although services at the Health Clinic are provided through a portion of the student's service fee, students needing additional coverage outside the clinic can purchase an Accident & Sickness Insurance Plan, which is accessible through a private company for SFA students. For the A&S insurance application and informational packet contact the Health Clinic office at 936-468-4008.
