Please check the website whenever possible to determine if plans are available to meet your needs. Then fax or E-mail your name and address to the companies that may have plans that are of interest to you so that you can receive information and enrollment forms by mail. It is a good idea to compare benefits and prices of at least two plans. You can enroll in a plan by mail, using a cashier s check. Feel free to call OISS at 784-6874 with any questions regarding health insurance requirements.
Students can ask for a waiver of the health insurance fee if they have comparable insurance.
Many students who request a waiver are not granted a waiver. A waiver must be requested within 10 days of the first day of classes. Any requests after that date will not be approved because the University will pay the health insurance fee to the health insurance company within 10 days of classes and the University cannot receive a refund for this fee once it is paid. Waivers must be requested at the Student Health Center from Ms. Catherine Clauson within 10 days of the first day of classes. For questions about waivers, please contact Catherine Clauson at the Student Health Center, Neil J. Redfield Building, at 784- 6598 .
