Programs who may opt in to SWC Services

Individuals registered through programs such as Open University, Continuing Education, Master's Thesis, International Gateways, and Special Session do not pay the required MHF, but may opt in to individual services. These students (referred to as non-subscribers) may access Student Wellness Center services during any school term/session/intercession by paying $31.16 (Health Services)/$14.07 (CAPS)/$5.03 (WHP) per visit (plus the same augmented or specialty service fees that are paid by students who pay the MHF).

In order to provide access to Student Wellness Center services for continuing students and graduates during the term breaks (summer and intersession/winter sessions), the following fee schedule applies:

Summer Session

• $15 per visit fee for continuing students. Continuing students are those who were enrolled in the immediately preceding spring term and will be enrolled for the immediately succeeding fall term, but are not enrolled for the summer.
• Additional fees for augmented services (e.g., physical therapy, elective physical exams, immunizations, allergy shots) would apply. 

Winter Session

• No charge for winter session students, continuing students (those enrolled in the immediately preceding fall term and the immediately succeeding spring term).
