Student Health Insurance
º£½ÇÆƽâ°æ's Student Accident and Illness Insurance Plan is intended to supplement and complement services normally available to students through Beu Health Center. Services of the Health Center are available to all students. Even if you are not covered by Student Insurance, you may still use the Health Center at no additional charge.
Insurance Waiver Information
You may request that health insurance be waived by submitting an online waiver form to the Student Health Insurance Office. The online waiver site opens on June 1 for Fall waivers and on December 1 for Spring waivers. Make sure you get a waiver confirmation number after submitting your information and then check your º£½ÇÆƽâ°æ email for your confirmation message. NOTE: the waiver site works best with a laptop or desktop computer rather than a mobile device.
This form must be approved and on file in the Student Health Insurance Office by the 10th day of Fall and Spring Semesters and the 6th day of Summer Semester.
