Wellness Center
Registered Nurses see students for any concerns, illness, or injuries for no charge. We can assess and treat for common upper respiratory illness, sore throats and cough, gastrointestinal illness, urinary tract infections, dermatitis or rash, muscle strains or injuries. We have a large variety of over the counter medications to help with everyday illness. We stock a variety of vaccines and provide routine testing for Strep, Pharyngitis, Urinary Tract Infections, Mononucleosis, and pregnancy. We can draw blood work and cultures that are sent to a local lab for evaluation. A Nurse Practitioner (NP) is available by appointment to provide physical exams, well women exams, travel medication prescriptions, advanced medical care, and maintenance of certain prescriptions.

Counseling programs and services are offered to help students live more effective, responsible, and satisfying lives. The Counseling Center offers individual and group counseling sessions for students as well as consultation with faculty, staff and parents. Counseling resources ranging from pamphlets and videos, community referrals, to on-line assessments are also available.
