Why must I pay a health fee?
The student health fee is mandated by the California Education Code (Section 76350-76395). The California Education Code states that the health fee must be paid by all students unless:
a) Students who depend exclusively upon prayer for healing in accordance with the teachings of a bona fide religious sect, denomination or organization.
b) Students who are attending a community college under an approved apprenticeship training program.
A student who meets the criteria to have his/her health fee waived, should present appropriate documentation which demonstrates that the student meets criteria a or b above to Admissions and Records.
