Health Insurance Waiver is Due July 31 |
All students are required to have Health Insurance. As a first-year graduate student, you will be enrolled in and charged for the university’s health insurance plan. If you have insurance through another plan that meets Massachusetts requirements including minimum creditable coverage, you can apply for a waiver of the university’s plan between now and July 31 in the Student Information System (SIS).
If your insurance meets Massachusetts requirements including minimum creditable coverage and you do not waive by July 31, you will be enrolled in the student health insurance for this year.
Disenrollment 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:
|
-
Applied as a part-time student and not enrolled in enough credits to trigger the charge; or
- Enrolled in a fully online program.
|
If you have already waived between June 1 and July 31, 2025, no further action is needed. If your waiver was approved, you can check your SIS account to see that the premium was credited.
You can learn more on our Student Health Insurance website.
Questions about health insurance can be sent to StudentHealthInsurance@tufts.edu.
Sincerely,
Jennifer M. Berrios, MHA
