Mount Aloysius College Student Health & Wellness Center offers on campus support and medical assistance for injured and sick students. A registered nurse works with a consulting physician to assess and treat acute illnesses and will guide you to other healthcare providers, when necessary, for chronic illnesses or injuries.

Students have unlimited walk-in visits, so drop by as often as you like. Physician appointments are also available. You’re always welcome, even when you are well. We also provide services to help you stay healthy like flu shots, health counseling, and screenings. If you have special needs – like dietary restrictions, medications, or physical limitations – we are ready to assist and help you adapt to college life.
