Healthcare
Students who do not have other insurance coverage are entitled to full medical and hospital care through the National Health System (ESY), using only their AMKA (Social Security Number).
The University Student Club Health Service (Kato Leschi, entrance from Egnatia street) offers first aid, clinical examination, vaccinations and health advice. A free Counselling and Psychological Support Centre (KE.SY.PS.Y.) is also available to all students.
