All SDSU health care services are located in Calpulli Center.
Why you need insurance:
Medical care in the U.S. is extremely expensive. Treatment costs for a simple broken wrist can exceed $500. A routine surgical procedure, such as an appendectomy, can be as high as $10,000. Without insurance, you could experience financial ruin if you have a serious accident or illness. This could prevent you from completing your studies in the U.S.
All international students who will study at SDSU for more than 1 semester must meet specific immunization requirements and provide proof of immunization to Student Health Services.
What should you do if Student Health Services or your doctor’s office is closed?
If your injury or illness is life-threatening, if you are bleeding uncontrollably, or if you feel your injury could result in permanent physical damage, go to the nearest hospital Emergency Room. Take your health insurance card with you, because you will probably be asked for it before you see a doctor.
