Insurance Information


"All students who are enrolled at the University and are taking nine or more credit hours are automatically assessed the Student Health fee in tuition costs. This fee includes the basic health insurance, dental benefits, and access to all the services provided by the Center for Student Health and Counseling.

Included in the basic benefits are partial payments for hospitalization, physician's home and office visits, ambulance service, x-ray and laboratory work, surgery and pregnancy expenses.

Please note: Students who were enrolled for 9 or more credit hours and end up dropping a class and now are enrolled for less than 9 credit hours need to be sure to inform the cashiers office in Neuberger Hall that they do not want their health fee refunded to them. If the fee is refunded, students will no longer have the basic or extendended health insurance and they will no longer be eligible for services in the Center for Student Health & Counseling.

Please be aware that most self-support or course credits received from TV, Internet, Video, or Satellite are not eligible for the student health fee/basic insurance or extended insurance."

A voluntary insurance program is also offered providing extended coverage and major medical benefits for students. You may enroll online at Wells Fargo Insurance Services or by calling them at 1-800-853-5899.
