Welcome new and returning Salukis! We look forward to seeing you at Student Health Services soon. Just a quick list of to-do's while you settle into campus:

Have you uploaded your immunization records yet? If not, please visit the Immunization Compliance webpage for information on how to do that.
Have you started the Student Health Insurance enrollment or waiver process? The deadline to complete this is August 29 for the Fall Term semester. If you need information on how to do that, please visit the Health Insurance webpage.
Visit the Dawg Lounge, Wellness and Health Promotion Services, or the Pharmacy. If you are a new student, you can request a facility tour.

Spring 2026 Important Update on Student Health Insurance Enrollment and Waiver Process:

1. If you already received a Fall 2025 waiver: Your waiver will automatically carry over to Spring 2026. The Spring insurance fee will be credited back to your account, and you do not need to submit another waiver until Fall 2026.

2. If you were enrolled in the Fall 2025 SIUC Student Health Insurance Plan but you now want to waive the insurance fee for Spring 2026, you must contact Student Health Services before you can submit a Spring waiver application. The system will not allow you to complete the waiver unless this step is done first!

3. If you are a new or transfer student starting in Spring 2026 and you are taking on-campus courses and want to waive the SIUC Student Health Insurance Plan fee, you must submit a Spring 2026 waiver application. Step-by-step instructions are available below in FAQ #2.
