PHARMACY OVERVIEW

We are a full-service in-house Pharmacy serving the university community! We provide medication consultations, fill and refill prescriptions and offer generic medications that are always available at a low cost to students, faculty and staff. Most prescription insurance plans are accepted at our pharmacy.

FILL A NEW PRESCRIPTION

Our pharmacy can fill prescriptions written by your Student Health Center provider or by a medical provider outside of the Student Health Center. Prescriptions can be processed on the same day if in-stock and received at least 30 mins prior to pharmacy closing time.

  • If the prescription is currently with a different pharmacy: Call us and provide your name, date of birth, ID number, phone number, the name of your medication and which pharmacy has the prescription. We can contact them to transfer the prescription to our pharmacy.
  • If prescribed by a provider outside of the Student Health Center: Your provider can phone in, fax or e-scribe your prescription to the Student Health Center Pharmacy. 
  • If you have a paper prescription: Prescriptions can be filled once it has been brought in to the pharmacy.

REFILL A PRESCRIPTION

Refill your existing prescriptions at the Student Health Center. If your prescription is at another pharmacy, we are glad to call that pharmacy to have any remaining prescription refills transferred to our pharmacy. Refills can be processed the same day if in-stock and received 30 mins prior to closing time.
