Eligibility

Who is eligible to use Student Health Services?

Registered MSU and MSU Law students, as well as their spouse or other eligible individual (OEI) as defined by MSU, are eligible to use Student Health Services at Olin Health Center and in the neighborhoods. Any individual who has active Aetna student health insurance is eligible to use Student Health Services, as we will function as the primary care office while coverage remains active.

We are not equipped to provide care for children or infants. MSU Pediatrics, an MSU HealthTeam clinic, provides care for children.

There are charges for most services. To learn more, and to find out if you are eligible for the "three visits", please visit the Costs & Billing page.
