[Intl-stu] Important changes to insurance waiver process

[International Students]

There has been some changes to the waiver process for the health
insurance for international students for the spring semester and all
students need to review this email to avoid being incorrectly charged
for the health insurance.  

 

ALL students who are eligible for a waiver (government scholarship, GA,
employment based) will need to request a waiver through the Academic
Health Plan system by Friday, January 17, 2014.  

 

The ISSO will no longer process waivers.  FAILURE TO SUBMIT YOUR WAIVER
REQUEST BY FRIDAY, JANUARY 17 WILL RESULT IN YOU BEING CHARGED THE
INSURANCE FOR THE SPRING.  Insurance charges WILL NOT be removed after
January 17, 2014.   

 

To request a waiver from the mandatory SSHIP please follow the steps
below.  PLEASE NOTE ALL STUDENTS (GA, GOVERNMENT SCHOLARSHIP, EMPLOYMENT
BASED) ARE REQUIRED TO SUBMIT A WAIVER REQUEST.  For information on
waiver eligibility go to
