To keep our campus healthy and safe, there are several health tasks all new students must complete. The steps are outlined on the CSU Health Network’s New Student Checklist.

The CSU Health Network is every student’s home for health care while at CSU. Enrolled students are entitled to full access to the many services offered, including medical services, counseling services, and health education and prevention services.

The following is a broad overview of the requirements and recommendations for new students with links to more detailed information about each. All requirements can be accessed and submitted through the CSU Student Health Portal.

Failure to comply with these requirements will cause a hold to be placed on a student’s registration.

If you have any questions about insurance, please contact the Student Health Insurance Office at (970) 491-1355.
