📇 Health Insurance
The beginning of a new semester is an exciting time, but with all that excitement and preparation, it can be easy to forget something on your to-do list. That's why we're reminding you of one very important thing: health insurance coverage, a requirement for all students attending Seton Hall. You need to do
one of the following:
|
-
Are you already covered by a health insurance plan (e.g. a parent's plan)? Complete the waiver today.
- Are you currently without health insurance? Seton Hall offers a great student health insurance plan. Enroll today.
|
Disability Support Services (DSS)
DSS provides accommodations to students who have had a 504 plan, IEP plan previously in high school for a disability. Having prior accommodation is not a requirement for registering. Any student who wants to discuss possible accommodations should reach out to DSS to meet and discuss possible accommodations. Register online here.

Institutional Statement on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion
Catholic teaching urges us to welcome authentic diversity and impels us to work for equity and justice, and so we seek to build inclusion, belonging, affinity, and connection. We emphasize our ongoing commitment to be an engaged community where all — and especially the most vulnerable — can find a place to grow and flourish, not only within our University but also in our larger local, national, and global communities. For the complete Institutional statement, see here.
