You may reach out to our pharmacy BEFORE you leave the campus.  Please communicate with our pharmacy via our Online Prescription Refill page to request additional medication supply for the Spring quarter. Please allow us 48 to 72 hours to prepare your prescriptions.  Please note that we will do our best to assist you with your request, however, refills that require medical provider’s authorization will still apply and may take longer.
