CAMPUS POLICY REGARDING HEALTH INSURANCE
- It is a policy of the UNC Board of Trustees that all students who
are enrolled for 9 credit hours or more are required to have health
insurance. This is to ensure that health care costs will not interfere
with your academic goals.
- All students with 9 or more semester hours on the Greeley campus are automatically enrolled
in the university student health insurance plan and billed along with
other university services.
- If you have other comparable insurance, you must show proof of insurance and
submit an online waiver by the 10th
day of classes. (See what qualifies as
comparable insurance here).
- We do not accept paper waivers any longer, and you do not need to
submit a copy of your insurance card to the Insurance Office. The
entire waiver process is handled through the online waiver system.
- Students enrolled in the STEP Program in conjunction with Aims
Community College ARE required to have health insurance and would need
to complete the online waiver if they have comparable insurance.
- EVERY student who meets the above criteria must do a new waiver every fall.
- NOTE: Students enrolled in the Urban Education IDLA program
or Extended Studies Program are not eligible to
participate in the the Student Insurance and will not be charged for the
UNC Student Health Insurance.
- The Waiver deadline for Fall Semester 2009 is September 4, 2009.
