MANDATORY HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE

Chicago State University provides a mandatory Injury and Sickness Insurance Plan underwritten by United Healthcare Insurance Company.  All full-time students (undergraduates enrolled in 12 credit hours or more, graduates enrolled in 9 credit hours or more, and doctoral students enrolled in 6 credit hours or more) are automatically charged for the plan. All full-time international students are eligible for the plan and must be enrolled on a mandatory basis.

STUDENTS WHO HAVE HEALTH INSURANCE COVERAGE

Students who are currently covered by injury and sickness insurance will be able to waive out of the mandatory health insurance plan by going online during the specified waiver/enrollment period and completing the waiver form provided there.  Waiver/Enrollment periods and deadlines are published in the Class Schedule Bulletin each semester. Students must complete an online form to waive out of or enroll into the insurance plan every fall and spring semester that they have enrolled full time according to their respective programs.

Any student who does not submit an online waiver or enrollment form by the deadline will be required to buy the university insurance plan.
