Students who have health insurance coverage must waive out every year while enrolled at Meredith College. Eligible students with an existing health insurance policy should complete the on-line waiver. The portal will open for students starting in early July with new incoming students being able to access the portal early during their on-campus StartStrong day. The portal will close for ALL students on Wednesday, September 14, 2022 at 5:00pm EDT for the Fall 2022 semester and Wednesday, January 25, 2023 at 5:00pm EDT for Spring/Summer 2023. No changes can be made after the portal closes. If the student does not complete the waiver and have it approved then the health insurance charge will remain on the account and the student will be enrolled in Meredith sponsored BCBS plan. It is important that you complete this waiver EVERY YEAR while at Meredith. Students who do not complete this waiver will be charged for the student health insurance on their Meredith student account. The health insurance charge will remain on the account and cannot be removed via waiver after the deadline.
