Why Students Should Have Health Insurance

In case you are ill or injured: Students are responsible for payment of costs not covered by the health service fee, including medication, emergency room visits, hospitalizations or ambulance service, and any services outside UHS.  If you do not have insurance, consider purchasing the Domestic Student Health Insurance Plan.

If you need to withdraw from school for medical or psychological reasons: The University offers a plan that refunds tuition and University Housing costs.  Consider purchasing the Tuition Refund Plan.

In case you experience a health problem while traveling: The University offers a plan that can reduce the impact of health problems on study, work, volunteer and travel abroad. For more information, see Travel Abroad Health Insurance.
