Need a Doctor’s Note?
Beginning fall 2007, a note for verification of illness will no longer be required for missed classes, by vote of the Academic Senate. The Student Health Center will no longer routinely provide this documentation.
This policy is in congruence with campuses nation-wide, which recognize the adult relationship between college students and their instructors. The benefit for UCSC students is an expected decreased waiting time for those who truly need medical care.
To avoid missing classes please schedule routine appointments for future dates. Or, ask the Triage Nurse to book a same-day appointment for later in the day or the next morning
To make an appointment, call the Appointment Line (831) 459-2500.
