Student Insurance
Since 1980, Washington University has had a mandatory health insurance program for international students. Although there have been recent changes in how the health insurance program will be administered, we will continue to require students on the Danforth Campus on Washington University’s F-1 program, as well as J-1 Exchange Visitors in the student category (degree or non-degree students), to be covered under the health insurance program offered through Student Health Service (SHS) on the Danforth Campus. This mandatory health insurance plan will provide the necessary financial safety net for international students, minimizing disruption in their academic program due to concern about medical bills. Students with F-1 and J-1 visas will be required to enroll in the university’s health insurance plan regardless of whether they have coverage through another provider.
Health Information Deadline
The deadline for completing your health information is not until August 17, 2019.
