Appointments made over the phone can be made up to two weeks in advance.

Class Excuses

Walkout Statement

Eligibility

Currently enrolled students attending classes at the San Marcos campus pay a Medical Service Fee (MSF) each semester that entitles them to unlimited physician or nurse visits with no office visit charges.  Students who take correspondence courses or who attend classes only at the Round Rock campus are also eligible for care at the Student Health Center, but would have office visit charges of $35 per visit.  Lab tests, x-rays, prescriptions, allergy injections, and other services are offered to all students at reasonable prices.

Students enrolled in the previous semester can receive care during the periods between academic semesters without an office visit fee for seeing a physician or nurse.

• For example, students enrolled in the spring semester will not have to pay an office visit charge during the time after the spring semester ends and before summer I begins.

Students not currently enrolled may use the Student Health Center for one long semester after their last semester enrolled at Texas State.

What to Expect During Your Visit

If needed, you will be sent to the lab for tests or to the x-ray room. The provider will then explain the test/x-ray results with you and discuss a treatment plan. If there is a charge for any service, this will be discussed with you before the test is ordered. Then, wait in the exam room until your nurse returns. She will give you check-out information, prescriptions and any special instructions.
