Effective with the 2007 Fall Semester, UNCG students in degree programs, who are taking 6 or more credit hours, are required to demonstrate proof of health insurance to avoid a health insurance premium being charged to their UNCG account.
For those without health insurance, UNCG has made available through a UNC consortium an illness and injury plan. While this plan is an option, students are free to purchase any verifiable health insurance plan of their choice.
Students receiving graduate assistantships will receive additional information about health insurance in their letter of appointment.
Health insurance is available to all students through the Student Health Center. The cost of the policy this year is $730, and it provides coverage from August 1, 2007 to July 31, 2008.
Visit the Student Health Center's website for more information. From that website you also have the option of submitting your verification of existing insurance.
