Dear Returning Master’s Student,
We are writing to remind you that all Tufts students are required to have health insurance (it’s a Massachusetts state law).
All admitted full-time graduate students and admitted part-time graduate students enrolled in seven (7) or more credits across fall and spring semesters are automatically enrolled in and billed for the student health insurance plan at Tufts.
Students with comparable health insurance coverage can apply for a waiver of the university’s plan between now and July 31 in the Student Information System (SIS).
A waiver must be completed annually. If you had a waiver this past year, it is simple to submit your waiver again in SIS.
If you do not request a waiver by July 31, you will be charged for and enrolled in the student health insurance for this year. Disenrollment and/or refunds are not available after July 31. Voluntary disenrollment is only available upon entering the armed forces.
If there is no option for a waiver in your SIS account, the student health insurance has not been assessed to you because of your status:
