If I am unable to complete my immunization requirements prior to beginning medical school, can I wait to have my immunizations completed at the student health service office?
It is advised that you receive all your required immunizations by the deadline stated on the Admission Health Record form. During the beginning of the fall quarter the Student Health Service Office is very busy. If your appointment is not urgent, you may have to wait longer than normal to get an appointment scheduled. Even if you arrive during the summer, you will need to wait until the fall quarter to utilize Student Health Services. If it is not possible for you to complete all of your immunizations prior to your arrival at Feinberg, you must contact the Health Information Management Services at (847) 491-2203, or email Lisa Teel l-teel@northwestern.edu to request special permission to extend your deadline. If this step is not taken, you might incur late penalty fines and holds placed on your tuition account. Do I have a deductable or co-pay?
Co-pay and deductible amounts may vary based on treatment received and/or service provider. Please refer to your NU Student Health Insurance Brochure for co-pay and deductible information or contact an Aetna Insurance Representative at (877)626-2314. Copies of the health insurance brochure can be downloaded at: www.aetnastudenthealth.com Can I be seen the same day?

In order to request a same day appointment, you should contact the Student Health Services office at (312)695-8134. Same day appointments are available on a first-come first serve basis. |
