2025 - 2026 Academic Year: 06/23/2025 - 09/19/2025

All full time domestic students plus all international students must have health insurance. Students are automatically enrolled in the school accident/sickness plan when they register. Students may waive the school's insurance if they can provide proof of comparable coverage. Health insurance waivers are to be completed each academic year – that’s fall semester through summer sessions.

Waiver Requirements
  1. Must be active throughout the academic year or duration of study.
  2. Must cover medical expenses incurred for both accidents and illness at a minimum of $250,000 per policy year.
  3. Must have no exclusions for pre-existing conditions

  5. Expenses associated with the medical evacuation to the insured’s home country of no less than $50,000.
