Action Required.

All full-time* students on both the Montclair and Bloomfield campuses are required to have adequate health insurance coverage. To ensure compliance, the Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP) has been billed to your student account, but you have the opportunity to waive/opt out of the Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP) by providing evidence of a comprehensive Affordable Care Act (ACA) compliant health insurance plan online to 大学 Health Plans.

How to Waive or Enroll in the 大学 Health Insurance

  1. Visit the 大学 Health Plans (UHP) Website to either waive or enroll in the school-sponsored health insurance plan.
    • 放弃: 完成 豁免形式 before the deadline of Monday, 9月16日, 2024.
    • 登记: 完成 登记表格. If you do not complete this form, you will automatically be enrolled and charged the student health insurance premium.
    • If you do not act to waive or enroll, you will receive weekly reminders directly from 大学 Health Plans (UHP).
  2. Enrolling before the waiver deadline date will allow you access to the benefits as early as the plan effective date of Thursday, 8月15日, 2024. Get more information about health insurance and health services! Get More Information about Student Health Insurance.

Deadline to Waive or 登记: Monday, 9月16日, 2024

To ensure compliance, you are automatically billed SHIP and will be enrolled if a waiver is not submitted online by Monday, 9月16日, 2024.

You will be responsible for paying the premium even if you have other health insurance coverage, if you fail to waive it by the deadline!


Additional Information

  • *Full-time students are defined as:
    • Undergraduate students enrolled in twelve (12) or more credits.
    • Graduate students enrolled in nine (9) or more credits.
  • International Students: All F-1 visa students, part-time or full-time, must also be insured with an ACA-compliant, filed and approved policy in the U.S.
    • J-1 Visa Students: J-1 visa holders must meet the US Department of State’s health insurance minimums. 请参阅 Mandatory Health Requirements on The Office of Global 参与ment site and information on how to waive the university insurance.
    • If your health insurance plan meets all of the waiver requirements you can request the International Student 豁免形式. International students do not have access to the online enrollment and waiver forms. You must get in touch with 大学 Health Plans at (833) 251-1705 or info@univhealthplans.com.
    • 请注意: Health insurance plans marketed solely to International students are often not filed and approved in the U.S., have limited benefits, provider networks, and/or coverage periods, and do not comply with the Montclair State insurance requirements. GBG保险, HDL Global Specialty, ISO, PGH(美国), ψ, Student Medicover, and Tata AIG are examples of companies that do not meet the waiver requirements.
  • If you do not complete a waiver by Monday, 9月16日, 2024, you will be automatically enrolled in the Aetna 大学 Health Insurance after the waiver deadline.
