*** Health insurance fees vary. Students are assessed an annual fee to cover the cost of the basic health insurance plan offered by the university. The fee is waived for students who provide the university with verification of health care coverage from another source. Students also are given the opportunity to increase coverage and receive information of plan options and prices from the university prior to enrollment. All questions about student health insurance should be directed to Student Health Services.
