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 more information on the College of Medicine’s Student Health Insurance page.
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.
Students enrolled in the below list of programs do not qualify to receive the student health insurance and will not be charged the premium.
