Rutgers Student Health provides medical and counseling services which cover from acute or chronic illness and concerns to mental health support. The University Health Center and Counseling Center are located throughout the New Brunswick campus including Cook/Douglass Campus which provides easy access to our students. If it is not a medical emergency, students can make an appointment online or by phone. If it is a medical emergency, students should dial 911 or call RUPD at 848-932-7211.
