Medical and Safety Requirements

Students must abide by all safety procedures related to the use of College equipment and facilities. For your own safety, please check with your physician before enrolling in any course requiring physical activity, and let your instructor know at the first class session about any physical condition which might affect your participation. The College reserves the right to require approval of the College physician for participation in any activity.

Please note that refunds cannot be granted for medical reasons after the official refund period.

Accident/Health Insurance
The College does not offer an accident/health insurance plan for nonmatriculated students. Therefore, you should be covered by a personal or family policy if you are not enrolled in a degree-granting program at Purchase College.
