Health Insurance Information for Michigan Tech grad students

Who is required to have health insurance?

All enrolled graduate students, with the exception of distance learning students and students on continuous enrollment (UN5951 or UN5953), must have health insurance. In some cases (Peace Corps students on assignment, for instance) the Graduate School knows students have insurance and we do not require that you contact us, but in general it is the student's responsibility to inform us that you have or want to purchase insurance coverage. More specifically:

• Unsupported students must have plan 126-3 (or comparable coverage) during any terms in which they are enrolled. They may opt to purchase a 12-month plan.
• Supported students must have plan 126-1 (or comparable coverage) through the end of the policy year (generally mid-August). Supported students may not opt to purchase a partial year of insurance.
