Health Services
Health Services are offered through DePaul Student Health at Munroe Hall, 2312 N. Clifton Avenue on Lincoln Park Campus. The program offers basic medical care for minor illnesses and injuries to all students living in DePaul housing. It is NOT a health insurance plan. If a student lives in a Lincoln Park residence hall they are automatically enrolled in DePaul Student Health. Students who reside at University Center in the Loop can purchase access to the clinic for $60 per quarter.
For more information, contact the Office of Health Promotion and Wellness at (773)325-7129.
In addition to student health services, HPW offers many health resources such as HIV and STI testing quarterly on campus. Testing is free, provided by community organizations, and available to all DePaul students. Additional information on other health resources is available at go.depaul.edu/healthresources.

DePaul Student Health is designed to treat acute illnesses and injuries. For students with chronic illnesses, student health can treat an acute episode; however, long-term monitoring and treatment is not offered at this site.
DePaul Student health does provide STI testing when a student is experiencing symptoms. Students' sexual health is an important component of their development, and student health is an appropriate support and referral source for students. For students interested in non-symptomatic STI testing, please contact HPW at hpw@depaul.edu for information and referrals.
Medication prescribed to students are NOT provided on location. Pharmacies adjacent to campus can utilize a students insurance to fill prescriptions.
DePaul Student Health cannot refill prescriptions for the treatment of ADD/ADHD. Other ongoing prescriptions, such as Accutane, antidepressants, and other psychiatric maintenance medications, cannot be refilled by physicians at student health.
DePaul Student Health welcomes parents and guardians to call with general concerns or questions. While specific questions regarding diagnosis or treatment may not be shared without the consent of the patient, the staff will make every effort to assist parents and guardians because they understand how difficult it can be to be far away from a sick student. For assistance with finding providers in the community, please reach out to studentinsurance@depaul.edu to speak with a staff member.
