Living Healthy on Campus Part 2

If you have a full schedule of classes, you may not have the time or money to commit to an expensive gym membership and if you're eating all your meals at the cafeteria, it may be even more challenging to stay in shape. Instead of falling victim to the Freshman 15, start living a better and healthier life that any SJSU Spartan can achieve through a few simple tips and places that students can get in for little to no money if they make the right choices.

Located at the corner of 9th and Paseo de San Carlos St.
(The building behind the Events Center)

The San Jose University Student Health Center is another one of SJSU's many facilities that is an added bonus that comes with tuition and it's available for any currently enrolled student with a valid Tower ID card.

Although most services are at no cost to valid students, there are some fees associated with specialty procedures and services. However, this center is extremely helpful for anyone that is not under specific healthcare to get basic health checked such as mild injuries, illnesses, and health exams. The Student Health Care Center also offers more than the basic medical care such as health management including nutrition habits, immunizations, stress management, physical therapy, medicine, and education about certain drug and alcohol use. As it's approaching fall, this center is increasing becoming popular as the annual Flu Vaccine is only $15 and is attracting many students.

Making an appointment is easy as calling but if it's your first time going, make sure you fill out a few health records online at www.sjsu.edu/studenthealth in order inform the staff ahead of time.
