What to do during breaks
Health Care Resources during times when the health center is closed, during breaks, and at a student's discretion.
Please be aware of your individual insurance coverage policies and how they would pertain to services "out of plan network" or "out of state".
Students can utilize the after hours on call number, 610-328-8548 to speak with a registered nurse when the Student Health & Wellness Center is closed.
Administrative questions: e-mail Student Health & Wellness at health@swarthmore.edu. Your e-mail will be returned during the next several business days. We are generally not open for routine Clinical Services during breaks.
