Purdue University Student Health Service (PUSH) will be open weekends during the fall semester to better accommodate the health care needs of Purdue students.

Weekend hours are 10 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Saturdays and 11 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Sundays. Weekend office visits will be on a walk-in-only basis, and patients will be prioritized based on medical need.

Check-in will be located at the Extended Care Services entrance off of the parking lot at the rear of the building. To minimize the risk of airborne pathogens, visitors are prohibited from entering the building with patients.

Students who have medical questions or concerns about COVID-19 or who are experiencing any COVID-19 symptoms should call the Protect Purdue Health Center at 765-496-4636, option 1. Symptoms include fever/chills, cough, shortness of breath/difficulty breathing, fatigue, muscle or body aches, headache, new loss of smell or taste, sore throat, congestion/runny nose, nausea/vomiting, and diarrhea.

Provider visits for illness or injury are free for full-time currently enrolled Purdue students on the West Lafayette campus. There are fees for diagnostic testing, medications, immunizations, allergy shots and all other services. More information is available online.
