Health Insurance
All full-time domestic students must be covered by health insurance and are automatically enrolled and billed for health insurance. If you have insurance coverage though a private policy, you may waive the insurance charge on your bill by submitting an insurance waiver. Insurance waivers must be submitted on-line www.wcsu.edu/insurance. If you submit an insurance waiver, you may deduct the health insurance charge from your balance due.
Insurance waivers must be submitted prior to the first day of classes. If you fail to submit an insurance waiver, you will be enrolled in the plan and will be held responsible for the payment of the insurance premium.
Students are billed the yearly health insurance premium on their fall bill. If you are a full time student during the fall semester and you submitted a waiver, it is not necessary to submit a waiver for the spring semester.
All full-time international students are mandated by the United States Government to purchase the Sickness and Accident Insurance for every semester, it cannot be waived.
Part-time students in need of health insurance may contact the insurance company directly or by enrolling on-line at www.wcsu.edu/insurance. The insurance company will bill you directly.
