Our Commitment to you

Student Health Services is an integral part of Southern Illinois University caring for the health of our culturally diverse students. The Student Health Center is a state-of-the-art ambulatory healthcare facility that has been continuously accredited by AAAHC since 1996 and recently certified as a Patient-Centered Medical Home. We provide an integrated and holistic approach to cost-effective healthcare, serving as the student’s medical home away from home.

Student Health Services provides quality medical care for all SIU students enrolled in on-campus courses. Remember, you do not need insurance to access care at the Student Health Center. Your Student Health Fee allows you to utilize services for the entire semester. You can make your appointment on-line at the Saluki Health Portal conveniently from your residence. Please check the fees & payments to understand what services require a fee.
