Student Wellness
SFSU provides student resources designed to support health, well-being and basic needs.
Gator Health and Well-being (GHW)
GatorHealth and Well-being units provide health services, educational resources and events to help every student be successful. We want students to take advantage of resources when they are sick but also when they are healthy. Preventative and wellness visits can help mitigate or ease future health problems. The GatorHealth units take a holistic approach to wellness services and consider all the factors that impact students.
The three GatorHealth units:
- Medical Health Services
- Counseling and Mental Health Services
- Health Education
New Gator Student Health Center
As of spring 2025, all three offices are conveniently located in the new Gator Student Health Center at 730 Font Blvd. at West Grove Commons, right next to student housing and across the street from the Mashouf Wellness Center.
Reminder: Use these services
Most students are already paying for these services via the health fee they paid with tuition. These fees help support many GatorHealth programs, facilities and events. We want all students to reach their full potential and achieve their goals. Take care of yourself and reach out when you need help. SFSU is here for you!
