Student Health Services

Oregon State University Student Health Services has a policy to not provide written excuses to explain a student’s absenteeism from classes or poor performance on examinations. This policy is consistent with our commitment to maintain patient confidentiality, encourage more appropriate use of health care resources, and support meaningful dialogue between teacher and student. Students are responsible to promptly notify instructors about absences caused by illness or injury.

A student who feels his/her situation deserves special consideration may make an appointment with the Director or designee to discuss other options.

Students who wish to request a withdrawal from a class or from the University need to follow the rules set forth by the University. Information about withdrawals can be obtained from the Registrar’s Office.
