Whether enrolled in an NYU-sponsored Student Health Insurance plan or maintaining alternate health insurance coverage, the Student Health Center offers routine and walk-in Primary Care and Women's Health Services at either no cost or very reduced cost to all matriculated NYU students. In addition, Wellness, Short-term Counseling (talk therapy) and Crisis services are free of charge.
Offering universal, hassle-free access to health care by providing primary care and women's health services for routine and urgent needs will add great value to the NYU experience for all students and great comfort in knowing that a safety net for basic healthcare exists at NYU.
We have extended our operating hours to accommodate a greater number of students. Th Sample of Services Chart illustrates a sample of healthcare benefits that are available to all matriculated NYU students. Although many services are offered at no or reduced cost, this does not eliminate the need for students to maintain adequate health insurance coverage, as per NYU policy, for primary and specialty care when you are off campus or at home, or for hospitalization should that be necessary.
The SHC is an important part of the Division of Student Affairs at NYU. Together, our physicians, clinicians, nurses, counselors, health educators and administrative staff are committed to enhancing your health and well-being. We invite you to make SHC a part of your NYU experience.
