To make things easier for you, the University has an option that will automatically enroll you in the institutional policy’s Accident & Illness Insurance Coverage. This will be automatically billed to you by Student Accounts & you will see this labeled as “insurance” on your student bill. The exact charges to your student account will depend on the plan you choose.
Insurance rates for the 2023-24 are as follows.
