Student Health Insurance Requirements, 2024/2025 Academic Year
Insurance Requirements
Mandatory Coverage
Maintaining comprehensive health insurance coverage is mandatory for all full-time SWAG视频 students, and all students MUST be covered by an ACA compliant domestic health insurance plan for the entire academic year, including summer and holidays. All full-time SWAG视频 students are required to enroll in the Student Health Insurance Plan unless an acceptable Waiver is provided by the designated deadline.
Part-time SWAG视频 students, those enrolled in programs where the entire curriculum is delivered online and students only enrolled in thesis/dissertation continuous registration courses are exempt from the University鈥檚 comprehensive health insurance requirement. However, all SWAG视频 students may enroll in the student health insurance plan, regardless of their exemption status.
There are many insurance options available in the marketplace today. We encourage you to research your health insurance options thoroughly prior to making a final decision. For those of you unfamiliar with insurance terminology, provides a glossary of health insurance terms that may be helpful as you review and compare your insurance options.
Automatic Fee Assessment
All full-time SWAG视频 students will automatically be assessed the fall 2024 premium for the student health insurance plan during fall 2024 registration. The fall 2024 premium charge will only be reversed upon receipt of an acceptable waiver by the posted waiver deadline. If an acceptable waiver is not received by the posted waiver deadline, your enrollment in the student health insurance plan will be finalized, you will no longer be eligible for a refund of the fall 2024 premium, and your student account will automatically be assessed the applicable spring 2025 premium during registration for the spring 2025 term.

If you originally waived out of the student health insurance plan but find that you need health insurance coverage later in the year due to an involuntary loss of coverage or if you have aged out of your parents鈥� insurance plan, you can also enroll via the website.
Students enrolling after the initial enrollment period due to an involuntary loss of coverage will be assessed a prorated portion of the insurance premium based on their dates of enrollment. This premium must be paid within two (2) weeks of the charge date. Failure to pay by the posted two (2) week period will result in a $50 monthly late fee and a hold will be placed on your student account.
Students have 30 calendar days after an involuntary loss of coverage to enroll in the student health insurance plan or submit updated proof of coverage. Students must maintain continuous enrollment in health insurance. If you are submitting new proof of coverage, it must begin within 24 hours of the termination of your previous coverage. You are not eligible to waive if you have any gap in coverage.
