The Wellness Center offers limited primary care services by appointment with our nurse practitioner, physician, and nurse. A minimal fee will be charged to the student's account for services and supplies. Unfortunately, we do not accept private health insurance. Free HIV testing and $5.00 Tuberculin Skin Testing is offered each semester.
Health Services has numerous informational brochures and videos addressing health issues and will offer assistance with community referrals. Health awareness /promotion events called "Wellness Wednesdays," are held frequently throughout the year and include health education, screenings and guest speakers. These events sponsored by the Wellness Center include partnership with various Stevenson University community clubs and departments. We also offer a certified peer education (CPE) program which includes 2-day training for qualified applicants interested in health promotion/education. CPE’s will assist in planning, promoting and executing Wellness events.

Required Health Form and Meningitis Information
The Student Health Form must be completed by all new full-time residential and commuter students. Forms must be on file in the Wellness Center by August 1st for fall entrance and January 2nd for spring entrance. Allow 4-6 weeks to complete the form if a healthcare visit is needed.
In addition, all students planning to live on-campus at SU are required to be immunized against meningococcal disease (meningitis) with the vaccine MCV4 (Menactra or Menveo) or MPSV4 (Menomune). If the primary dose of the meningitis vaccine was administered before the student’s 16th birthday, a booster is required before moving into residence. ALSO, the meningitis vaccination must not have been given more than 5 years from the date of move-in (Health-General Article 18-102(b) Annotated Code of Maryland and Code of Maryland Regulations (COMAR) 10.06.05 Meningococcal Vaccination Requirements for Students in Institutions of Higher Education).
Students required to turn in other health related information for athletic, nursing, medical technology, GPS, etc. departments, still need to complete a Student Health Form. Please contact the specific department about completing their requirements.
Important: Failure to submit a complete Student Health Form by the designated deadline will block you from registering for future classes and/or lead to removal from housing.
The Student Health Form is presented in Adobe Portable Document format (PDF). In order to complete this form, it must be downloaded and printed. Forms will only be mailed upon request to the Wellness Center at 443-352-4200.
