About the Student Wellness Centres

As of January 1, 2020, our birth control dispensary has been impacted and we are unable to source several of our main oral contraceptives. Your prescription on file can be faxed to the pharmacy of your choice by speaking with the information nurse. We apologize for the inconvenience.

Laurier's Student Wellness Centres are the home of all physical, emotional and mental health services for students on our Waterloo and Brantford campuses. We are a multidisciplinary team offering comprehensive, collaborative service to help you get the best support in the most seamless and coordinated manner possible.

All students have access to these services through their OHIP and extended health plans. We welcome and support diverse communities.
