Insurance Information
Make sure you are insured. Some insurance plans terminate when: (1) the student reaches
the age of attainment on a parent's policy, meaning they are no longer covered, (2) the
student gets married, (3) the student becomes legally independent, or (4) the student is
studying abroad. You should also consider coverage areas and provider availability.
International students are required to have Health Insurance as well as Evacuation and
Repatriation insurance.
If you cannot register for insurance reasons, call the Student Health Services
Insurance Office at (979) 458-8310.
