Health Services at Columbia offers a comprehensive, accessible and cost-effective
range of medical care and self-care options, individual and group counseling,
health education, nutritional support, and extensive outreach on issues
pertinent to the physical and emotional needs of students, with sensitivity to
social and cultural concerns. For comprehensive descriptions of services and

The fee also includes coverage for a
select group of insurance services, available to all students, whether enrolled
