Student Health Insurance

 All new, full-time domestic undergraduate students carrying 12 or more credits will be automatically enrolled in the University’s Accident and Sickness Health Insurance Plan and included on your student statement. You may opt to waive out of the program for any given academic year if you already have insurance outside of the University. 

For students who are enrolling January 2010, the eight-month cost is $468.  The deadline for requesting a waiver for the spring term is Febraury 4, 2010.  Students who register after the first day of classes will be permitted to submit the waiver request within seven calendar days of the date of their registration. Requests for waivers received after these dates will NOT be honored, so please file early. You only need to waive out once for the academic year. If you waive out in the spring term, you do not need to waive out for the summer terms.
 
Waiver Process
Students can waive out of the program for any given academic year if they have existing Accident and Sickness Insurance coverage under another policy. The only way to waive out is through the Pace University Web Portal, “MyPace,” at http://portal.pace.edu. After logging in, click on the “Student” tab at the top, and then the “Health Insurance Waiver” link under the Office of Student Assistance (OSA) channel.
 
Any part-time student registered for six or more credits may voluntarily choose to purchase the Pace Insurance Plan.
 
Full-time international students have a separate program and should check with the Office of International Program and Services on their campus for more information.
