The health fee is required for all students enrolled in fall or spring semesters taking seven or more credit hours. Those not required may choose to pay the health fee to receive covered services. Part-time MU students may pay the fees at the Cashiers Office in Jesse Hall.

If you have graduated and have a record on file, you are eligible to use the Student Health Center on a fee-for-service basis for one semester following graduation (e.g., students who graduate in December may be seen during the following spring semester). During this period, you should arrange to have your medical records transferred to your new physician.

If you are the spouse of an eligible student but are not a student yourself, you can use the Student Health Center (except behavioral health visits) on a fee-for-service basis. Present your spouse’s student ID to receive treatment. Children and other family members are not eligible.

If you withdraw, you can still use the Student Health Center (except behavioral health visits) on a fee-for-service basis, but you may no longer utilize the services of the Counseling Center.

If your status changes from part-time to full-time, the university will automatically charge you the student health fee.
