Health Insurance
Access to the health center is free to all regularly enrolled Cal State San Marcos students. No health insurance is needed to utilize Student Health and Counseling services and there are no co-pays for medical appointments, except visits with the psychiatrist. Small fees may be required for prescriptions and some lab tests. Personal health insurance is strongly recommended for all students.
CSUSM has partnered with San Diego County Health and Human Services to have a county employee present on campus to help students apply for Cal-Fresh, Medi-Cal, or Cal-Works assistance. Please use this link if you would like to schedule an appointment to meet with that representative: CalFresh, Medi-Cal & CalWORKs Application Assistance (office365.com).
You can also find more information by visiting the Student Resources & Services page.
International Students who will be arriving to the United States on the F-1 Student or J-1 Exchange Visitor Visa through Global Education or The American Language and Culture Institute (ALCI): Please visit the Global Programs and Services website for your insurance requirements.
