Campus Health Resources

Welcome back to BYU-Idaho!  Whether you’re a new freshman or a returning senior, make sure you are familiar with all the resources campus offers to keep you healthy!

The Student Health Center
The Student Health Center has a plethora of resources available for BYUI students!  You can schedule appointments such as a pre-marital exam, a mission physical, immunizations, or a check-up if you’re sick.  There is also a pharmacy located in the office to fill prescriptions and a walk-in clinic that doesn't require an appointment.  The Health Center is staffed by licensed professionals as well as trained students.  They are available to help and serve you so don’t be afraid to stop in!
Hours: Monday- Friday, 8:00- 5:00; Closed for Devotional on Tuesday
To schedule an appointment, refill a prescription, or ask insurance questions call 208-496-9330.

 The Counseling Center
The Counseling Center is located above the Student Health Center.  They are staffed by licensed professionals and services include marriage and pre-marriage counseling, counseling with eating disorders, depression, anxiety, sexual abuse, and more.  You can get individual counseling or attend group therapy.  For more information, visit their website at www.byui.edu/counseling-center or call them at 208-496-9370.

Campus Activities is located in Manwaring Center 101 (across from the bookstore).  They are responsible for all of the fitness, sports, and wellness activities that take place each semester (along with many other things).  You can get involved by playing a competitive or recreation sport, volunteering to help organize an event, or just showing up to events and having fun!
