What about health insurance coverage?

Medical care at the Student Health Center is covered by student tuition/fees.  A minimal charge may be assessed for some lab test, equipment and supplies.  The student health center does not file private insurance, Student Assurance Services, or international insurance claims for these charges. However, students are strongly encouraged to obtain supplemental hospital-accident insurance to cover such expenses as: hospitalization, emergency services, specialist care,  pharmacy, and ambulance transport. These costs are not covered by the Student Health Fee. If coverage is available through a family plan, students are urged to have the name of the insurance carrier and policy/subscriber numbers available on campus. For those students not covered under family policies, supplemental insurance plans are available through the University and WTC.
