The SHC isYour on-campus Student Health Center
The vision of the Jacksonville University Student Health Center (JU SHC) is to complement the academic mission of student success by partnering with students to develop short and long-term healthy lifestyles that ultimately result in healthy physical, emotional, and psychological behaviors culminating in an overall healthy campus.
Staying healthy is an important part of college life; we provide preventative and episodic care as well as teach students to manage their wellness and navigate the healthcare system.
