Mandatory Health Insurance Program

Chicago State University requires full-time students to have Injury and Sickness Health Insurance. The university offers a health insurance plan underwritten by United Healthcare Insurance Company, andautomatically charges the tuition accounts of all students who enroll full-time for the plan. Th e fee is applied to students enrolled in all on-campus courses or a combination of on-campus courses plus off-campus (Extension and/or WEB) courses. Students enrolled in all WEB courses are not charged for the insurance plan.

Students generally do not enroll full time during summer semesters, therefore, the university does not automatically charge students’ accounts during summer terms for the mandatory insurance plan.

Students Eligible for Summer-Only Enrollment

During summer terms, students eligible to enroll into the health insurance plan provided through the university would be students carrying at least 6 credit hours who: (a) did not attend CSU in the previous spring semester; (b) were enrolled during the previous spring semester but were not covered by the university plan; (c) are residents of another university but attending CSU for the summer; and (d) are attending CSU for the first time.
