If Medicare covers you or a dependent, that person is not eligible for the Student Health Insurance Plan. If a student enrolls for 7 or more credits, the premium is automatically placed on the schedule bill. Students can enroll and waive insurance coverage through Dial Bear, Student Insurance Office, or Griz Central in The Lodge on campus. Coverage during Summer term only is available but is not automatically charged on your summer bill. New summer students must visit the Insurance Office within 15 days to be eligible to enroll for summer insurance.
Students can enroll a spouse, children, or both during the open enrollment each semester.
The additional premium must be prepaid and submitted through the Student Insurance Office with a completed application EACH semester. Eligible students will not be allowed to enroll in the Plan after the applicable enrollment waiver period unless proof is furnished that the student became ineligible for coverage under another group insurance plan during the 30 days immediately preceding the date of the request for late enrollment in the Student Health Insurance Plan. In such cases, the cost will be the same as it would have been at the beginning of that period. A student may waive their insurance only during the first three weeks of classes Autumn and Spring semesters, without petition. Students may petition to waive the insurance premium after the third week of classes.
