Health Services

The Brown-Lupton Health Center is located at 2825 Stadium Drive – west of Colby Hall and next to the University Union. The Health Center houses both the Medical Clinic and the Counseling Center. The Medical Clinic outpatient facility provides ambulatory care for the various needs of TCU students and is staffed by board-certified medical doctors, a physician assistant, a nurse practitioner who specializes in women's health care, and a professional nursing staff comprising R.N.'s and L.V.N.'s. During the regular academic year, the clinic hours are 9 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday.

An independent pharmacy conveniently located within the Health Center offers competitively priced prescriptions and over-the-counter medications. The pharmacy accepts most insurance plans. Co-pays and medication costs can be billed to the student's University account or paid for by cash or check at the time the prescription is filed.

Although not required for graduate students, the TCU Student Health Insurance Plan is available for students attending credit courses by specifically enrolling in the plan. Internet and television (TV) courses do not fulfill the eligibility requirements. To specifically enroll in the University-offered plan, the "elect" choice must be entered online at healthcenter.tcu.edu prior to the semester's deadline for electing or waiving.

International students, regardless of classification, are required to carry the University-offered student health insurance as a minimum standard of coverage and are not eligible for a waiver of the insurance.
