Health Insurance

Cornell College strongly encourages all students to have health insurance. If you need help navigating your insurance needs, please stop by the health center for a referral to navigators in our area. If you do not have health insurance, or are covered by another state’s Medicaid plan, we can help you apply for Iowa Medicaid.

Travel Health

The health center provides up-to-date travel health information to all students traveling abroad. Resources for travel vaccines are available. We would encourage all students to meet with a nurse 6 weeks prior to their travel.
