Student Health Insurance

The Student Health Insurance Program is administered in cooperation with Beu Health Center through the Student Health Insurance Office. Students taking a minimum of 9 hours, with at least 5 on the Macomb campus, are automatically enrolled in the Student Health Insurance Program, and all graduate assistants under contract to the University taking one hour or more of any type of classes are automatically assessed the insurance fee. Students taking WIU—Quad Cities classes are not automatically assessed the student health insurance fee but may be able to purchase insurance with at least 9 hours and at least 5 hours on campus. Additional information may be obtained by contacting the Student Health Insurance Office, located in Sherman Hall 321, at (309) 298-1882.

Students whose coverage meets or exceeds the University waiver criteria may apply to opt out of the student insurance program by completing the online waiver application. Contact the Student Health Insurance Office at (309) 298-1882 for information on the waiver process. The final deadline for filing an insurance waiver form is the 10th day of the Fall or Spring semester or the 6th day of the Summer session.
