Health Insurance is billed to all students who are enrolled for at least 12 credits. This is a conditional fee, which can ONLY be waived upon submission of proof that the student has his or her own health insurance coverage, or is covered under someone else’s policy. A waiver MUST be completed no later than the second week of the semester. Waiver requests received after the deadline cannot be honored.
International students are required to accept the Foreign Health Insurance offered through the College.
**NOTE: Students enrolled in Study Abroad Programs can only apply for a Foreign Health Insurance Waiver through the Center for International Programs.
Brochures are available online at www.newpaltz.edu/healthcenter/student_ins.html.

- Health Insurance Waiver Forms must be received by the Office of Student Accounts no later than the end of the second week of the semester. Waivers received after the deadline will not be accepted.
