Partners and spouses of students who are studying on Cornell’s Ithaca campus have access to nearly all Cornell Health services.
Services for spouses and partners include:
- Medical care
- Pharmacy services (prescription medications and self-care items)
- Physical therapy and massage therapy
- Annual flu vaccination (no charge)
- Allergy shots and immunizations
- Travel clinic services
- Lab testing and X-ray services
Counseling and support:
Individual counseling and psychiatry services are only available to full-time registered students. However, student spouses and partners may take advantage of couples counseling through Cornell Health. To get started, students should schedule an appointment for a brief phone assessment, during which they can request couples counseling.
