In 1977, the “Policy of the Board of Trustees on Student Health Services” established Student Health Centers across all California State University campuses. The April 2005 version of the policy (CSU Executive Order 943) required more services and programs.
The executive order requires these services at all CSU SHS locations:
- Primary care
- Family planning services
- Public health prevention programs
- Health education
- Evaluation and guidance
- Clinical lab services
- X-ray services
- Pharmacy services
- Medical liaison services
- Consultations and referrals to off-campus health providers
- Consultative services on campus health issues
The order also requires all CSU campuses to have a Student Health Advisory Committee, which decides which additional services are available and makes recommendations on the SHS fee.
Students can schedule appointments at SFSU:
- By phone at 415-338-1251
- Online at myHealth
Appointments are available in person or through Zoom.
At other CSU campuses, SFSU students:
- Are eligible for reciprocal basic (required) services
- Are not eligible for augmented/specialty (not required) services
