AcademicLiveCare

AcademicLiveCare offers virtual telehealth appointments for on-demand urgent care, and scheduled appointments for psychiatry, therapy, and nutrition counseling – all at no cost for full-time GW students*. ALC is an extension of our on-campus health services to provide support for students when they are away from campus or at times that may be more convenient to your schedule.

It does not replace the Student Health Center’s after hours or emergency services at 202-994-5300.

ALC provides virtual telehealth visits for urgent medical care, therapy, psychiatry and nutrition. Visits are unlimited and are provided at no cost for full-time GW students*.

Full-time GW students can create an account and log in at academiclivecare.com. On the home page select “Get Connected”.

Students may also download the AcademicLiveCare (ALC) app on the Apple app store or the Google Play store. 

To create an account students simply need to enter their name, university email address, a password, gender, date of birth, and primary location/state.

Because a psychiatry and medication management treatment plan requires additional consideration, once you have an established psychiatrist on the ALC platform the provider must schedule follow-up appointments.
