Background and Brief Description Approximately 43% of the over 30 million 18–24 year olds in the United States are currently enrolled in college or graduate school. These institutions comprise a mix of 2-year and 4-year colleges, public and private institutions, technical schools, and community colleges. In the U.S. young adulthood is the peak age group for many risk behaviors including unprotected sex. College students, who are typically at the age of most risk for acquiring a sexually transmitted infection (STI), may face challenges when seeking sexual and reproductive health care on campus. The last national study exploring the availability of STI services in U.S. colleges and universities (2- and 4-year) was conducted in 2001 and found that only 60% (474/736) of schools had a health center. Health centers were more common among larger schools (greater than 4,000 students) that were privately funded and 4-year universities with E:\FR\FM\14APN1.SGM 14APN1
