Student Health Services
Limited health services are available. Special medical referrals and physical examinations
for participants in athletic programs are scheduled by appointment with the consulting physician
through the athletic trainer. Medical emergencies are handled by Security personnel who are
qualified to give first aid. College staff and counselors are available to speak with students
about personal health concerns and promote an awareness of good health practices.
All students registered in a nursing, radiography, medical laboratory technology, physical therapist
assistant, flight technology, or funeral service program and/or specified clubs must complete and
submit a health form to the appropriate academic dean and/or club advisor. Disabled students needing
assistance should contact the Office of Special Services.
Blood Bank Plan
The college offers a blood bank plan to any student who wishes to become a member. Blood bank
drives are held at the West Windsor Campus each semester. A student donation of one unit of blood
covers the student and his/her immediate family should they need blood in the following 12 months.
Accident-Only Insurance
A student accident-only insurance policy,
paid for through college fees, provides limited benefits to all oncampus students for the treatment
of school-time injuries. Because this plan provides excess benefits only, students must first submit accident
claims to their own private insurance provider (if any). [claim form]
Sickness Insurance
In addition to the school accident coverage, the college requires all full-time matriculated students to carry
some form of adequate sickness insurance. Those full-time students without alternate coverage will be enrolled
in the MCCC Student Accident & Sickness Insurance Plan,
and an insurance charge will appear on their statement of account each semester. In order to avoid this fee,
full-time matriculated students must have alternate sickness insurance and complete a waiver form at the time
of registration. Part-time students are eligible to enroll in the MCCC Student Accident & Sickness Insurance
Plan by submitting a voluntary enrollment form. Waiver and enrollment forms are available from the Student
Services or Security offices.
