High Quality Health Care and Education
Mental Health First Aid at RIT
We are excited to offer all students, faculty, and staff members of the RIT community the opportunity to participate in Mental Health First Aid training sessions this fall. Learn how to identify, understand, and respond to signs of mental health and substance abuse challenges on our campus.
Student Flu Vaccine Clinics
RIT is partnering with Wegmans for three on-campus flu vaccine clinics for RIT students on Oct. 10 and 31, as well as Nov. 1. If your insurance is not accepted by Wegmans, you can get the vaccine at the Student Health Center for $20.
The Student Health Center at RIT provides high quality primary health care and education to students in a caring and supportive environment.
We recognize that our students come from different backgrounds and experiences, and seek to provide care that is inclusive, supportive, and accessible to all regardless of race, gender identity, sexual orientation, or abilities. We approach health care from a holistic perspective, understanding that good health is an important component of a successful college experience.

TigerChat App
Masks can make it hard for everyone to communicate.
Now you can use TigerChat to converse with another person or group using automatic speech recognition (ASR) technology and typing. RIT Wellness service providers are equipped and ready to use the TigerChat App to help eliminate communication barriers with the RIT Community.
