Insurance

All F-1 International students at Pace University must purchase health insurance at the time of registration. If you would like to use your own health insurance policy, you must submit a waiver request form along with a copy of your policy in English and US dollars (US$) to the ELI office within 2 weeks of the start of the session.  After 2 weeks, you will need to apply directly to the insurance company.

The insurance company will evaluate your health insurance.  If it is equivalent to the policy carried by Pace University, you will receive a refund of the insurance fee. However, if it is not equivalent to Pace University’s policy, you will not receive a refund. You may come to the English Language Institute office and ask for the Insurance Waiver form. Please note that your insurance policy must carry a medical evacuation and repatriation clause.

If you are intending to use your own insurance policy, it must meet or exceed the Pace University’s insurance policy in all coverage categories.   If your insurance company does not have coverage in at least these amounts for each category, you will not be granted a waiver and therefore will not receive a refund of your Pace University insurance fee. 

Here is a brief policy summary of Pace University’s insurance coverage and limits:

*Coinsurance Preferred Providers 85%, coinsurance Out of Network 65% with exceptions.

**UnitedHealthcare StudentResources policies automatically come with a global assistance plan called Scholastic Emergency Services (SES).
