Can I get health insurance through the Student Health Center?
Fullerton College students are covered for accidental injuries that occur during scheduled classes.  This coverage is a secondary policy.  There is currently no extended health insurance available through the College. The Health Center and the Student Center do have brochures for several insurance plans that are especially designed for students at reasonable monthly or semi-annual rates. Students are encouraged to come to Health Services and select a plan that will work for them.

What is the Health Fee that I pay every semester, and what do I get for it?
Each registered student is assessed an $13 Health fee ($9 in Summer Session) as part of their regular registration fees. This fee covers direct medical services, counseling and crisis intervention services received in the Student Health Center. It also pays for accident insurance coverage (described above), access to health education services, materials, and events as well as certain over the counter medications. Fullerton College Health Service provides access to low cost medications, immunizations and lab testing.
