Health Insurance
Massachusetts state law requires that all students be enrolled in a student health insurance program that meets the comparable benefits established by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. You may waive coverage if you have this coverage under a comparable benefit plan.
How to Enroll/Waive a Health Plan:
- Information for enrolling or waiving health insurance:
- Access the Waive / Enroll Health Insurance Form by logging into SiS
- You must complete this online form every academic year you are enrolled.
Once you complete the online waiver process, you can see the charge removed on your Account Summary.
