UConn automatically enrolls students in the University health plan, however, if you have alternative coverage you can waive the University plan. If you fail to complete the waiver, it is assumed that you accept coverage offered under the University-sponsored health insurance plan, and the charge for that coverage will remain on your fee bill.

If you wish to opt out of the University plan, you must complete the Health Insurance waiver.

Deadline: Fall waivers must be submitted prior to September 15th. Spring waivers must be submitted prior to February 5th.

After logging in, navigate to Health Insurance Waiver by clicking:

• Main Menu, then hover your mouse over Self-Service, and then click Student Center. Your Student Center appears.

  

• Scroll down to the Finances section of the Student Center and click the Create Student Permissions link.

  

• The UCONN Student Permissions page displays. Click the Health Insurance Waiver link.

Phone, Group Number, Policy / Member Number of your current coverage, and the Subscriber's Information, including the student's Relationship to the subscriber.
