Overview of SMU Student Health Insurance Plan

Health insurance is required each Fall and Spring term for SMU domestic students who are enrolled in a minimum of 9 credit hours and for SMU international students who are enrolled in a minimum of 1 credit hour.

After enrolling in classes for a Fall or Spring term, students who are required to have insurance must either Elect or Waive the SMU Student Health Insurance Plan by the deadline posted in the my.SMU的公告. Students who do not Elect or Waive by the deadline will be automatically elected and charged for the Student Health Insurance Plan provided through SMU. 截止日期后, the SMU Student Health Insurance Plan can no longer be requested or waived, and no reversal of insurance charges will be approved. A student may grant access to a parent or relation to view and enter health insurance selections on the student’s behalf.  The chart below summarizes a student’s insurance options, followed by detailed instructions.

修读少于九个学分的学生 are not required to carry the Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP) are not required to waive enrollment each semester. 然而, Domestic Degree Seeking Students with 4-8 credit-hours may elect the Health Insurance on a Voluntary basis. If you are under the 4 credit-hour requirement and would like the student health insurance, please contact the Student Health Insurance office to discuss an exception.
