Division of Student Success

Dear students,
I hope you are enjoying a restful summer break. As we prepare to welcome you back to campus in a few short weeks, you are going to notice an exciting change across the division: we are officially stepping into a new identity as the Division of Student Success (formerly the Division of Student Affairs).
Our core purpose has not changed and our focus on is clearer than ever: your success. I put together a short video to share the “why” behind this important evolution.

| Health insurance requirement |
|
|
|
All full-time, degree-seeking WashU students are required to have health insurance. You will be automatically enrolled in the university's health insurance plan and an annual premium charge for this coverage will be applied to your account. This plan runs August 1, 2026 - July 31, 2027.
You may submit a request to waive this insurance by September 5. This waiver must be submitted annually. For approval, your current insurance coverage must meet the university's specific criteria. Contact the Student Health Center - Danforth Campus with questions about health insurance.

Taking care of your health shouldn't be stressful. As a full-time student (18+) who pays the health and wellness fee, you have free access to TimelyCare, a virtual wellness service available 24/7 (even during summer break).
Think of it as having a doctor or counselor in your pocket whenever you need them! Use it to:
|
- Talk to someone right now: Anxious late at night? Use the TalkNow feature to connect with a mental health professional immediately.
- See a therapist: You get 12 free, scheduled virtual counseling appointments every year.
-
See a doctor: Get medical care or psychiatry visits for minor illnesses or routine medical issues that can be treated safely from your residence hall.
