An activity and service fee is assessed on a per semester hour basis and is included in your tuition. A portion of this fee is for health care. All students are therefore eligible for primary health care services offered at the Student Health Care Center in the Infirmary Building. This fee has been negotiated by UF Student Government and approved by the President. The Student Health Care Center is funded by students.
Health care is an extremely important service offered to the students.
The University of Florida administration has consistently felt that it is imperative for students to be offered a comprehensive health care system. This system has been set up to help students maintain their health while attending undergraduate or graduate school. The health service enables students to be seen, and consult with a health care professional for any health concern or problem a student may have. A student never has to go off campus or pay private physician fees. The purpose of this student group is to promote and increase consumer participation in health care on the University of Florida campus.
