Health Care and Insurance

Health and Wellness is about a lot more than just not getting sick. University life can be stressful, and it's important to look after many different contributors to your wellness, such as eating well, staying active, and finding ways to destress. However, for many, the new environment, climate, social situations, etc., raises a need to look after yourself medically as well.
