ArtCenter is dedicated to providing students with an array of health and wellness resources.
On-campus counseling services with licensed therapists are available at no charge for up to five visits per term. This service is for students who need short-term help with immediate personal problems. To schedule an initial appointment, students can see any staff member in the Center for the Student Experience. We can also refer students to any one of a number of off-campus therapists and other health care providers, as needed. Due to high demand, we recommend students schedule appointments as early as possible to ensure they can be seen by one of the therapists.
In partnership with our Financial Aid Office, we provide workshops and other resources to enhance students’ understanding and management of personal finances, building a foundation for successful personal financial management following graduation.
CSE sponsors health, wellness and safety workshops throughout the year and provides educational literature on a variety of health-related topics. In partnership with 24 Hour Fitness, we also provide students with discounted fitness center memberships with no contracts or start-up fees.
Enrolled students are eligible to use the gym facilities at Occidental College during the Fall and Spring semesters during designated hours. For more information, please refer to the Student Handbook or contact the Center for the Student Experience.
All ArtCenter students enrolled in a degree program are required to have health insurance. To ensure that students have access to quality health care, ArtCenter automatically enrolls all students in the Student Health Insurance Program (SHIP) at the start of each term—unless they successfully complete a waiver showing proof of comparable coverage.
(Note: Once the SHIP plan is used, you cannot waive the coverage for that term.)
