Student Health Insurance

Eligibility and Information

As an online student am I eligible for student health insurance?

Online programs do not qualify to receive the student health insurance and therefore students will not be eligible or charged the premium. You can read about more information on the College of Medicine’s Student Health Insurance page.

General Eligibility

On-Campus students enrolled in a qualifying program, registered for 6 or more credit hours or co-op, are charged the Student Health Insurance premium. If eligible students do not waive or activate coverage they will automatically be enrolled at the end of the enrollment/waiver period.  Students who want to waive Student Health Insurance must have coverage that meets the minimum requirements.
