eye scopeMassachusetts Law C.15A.s.18 requires every undergraduate student registered for 9 or more credits and every graduate student who is registered for 7 or more credits to purchase health insurance.

All students are charged for the college health insurance plan.

If the student chooses not to purchase the college plan they need to complete an on-line waiver form that can be accceesed by clicking the "Waive Health Insurance on-line" on the student accounts website. This process must be completed to avoid being charged the insurance cost on the tuition bill.
