If you neither waive nor enroll in the student health plan during open enrollment periods then you will be automatically enrolled in the Medical University of South Carolina Student Health Insurance Plan after the enrollment period closes. The following students attending the Medical University of South Carolina are eligible and the insurance premium will be added to their tuition bill each semester along with tuition and fees, unless a waiver of coverage is submitted online showing proof of alternate insurance that meets the University’s requirements before the waiver deadline:
- All graduate students enrolled in six or more hours or full-time.
- All International students enrolled in six or more hours or full-time
- Undergraduate students with clinical placement requirements who are enrolled in six or more credit hours or full-time.
If you intend to enroll in the student health insurance plan, you must enroll before July 31 to start receiving benefits on August 1, 2026.
