Medicated Abortion Information & Referrals

On May 2, 2023, legislation was signed in New York State (A1295-C/S1213-B) that requires all public colleges and universities in the SUNY and CUNY systems offer access to medication abortion. The law requires that every SUNY and CUNY campus provide access to abortion medication to their student body either by employing or contracting with authorized individuals who may prescribe abortion prescription drugs, or by providing students with information and referrals to providers authorized to prescribe abortion medication.

Westchester Community College does not provide pre-natal care on-campus. The Health Services website will maintain a list of community agencies and/or providers authorized to prescribe abortion medication. Students will be referred to the Office of Accessibility Services for pregnancy or pregnancy related accommodations.

Allied Health Students:

Upon admission to programs within the Health Sciences Curriculums that require clinical rotations to various hospitals, students will need to submit documentation of the results of a physical examination, laboratory tests, and specific vaccinations to Health Services. The nurses will review and provide clearances to those students who have met the criteria as set forth by the New York State Department of Health for Health Care Personnel and Clinical Affiliates. Each program (curriculum) requires the physical exam process be done at specific times.

Allied Health Physical Exam Forms can be accessed at:
