Welcome to the Waive Your School’s Insurance Center!
This page is for those students who wish to opt-out (waive out) of the coverage under their school’s student insurance plan and have the fee removed from their student account. The school’s student insurance plan can only be waived if the student has coverage under another acceptable insurance plan.
Submitting a waiver is as easy as 1-2-3! The first step to waive out of your school’s student insurance coverage is to verify that you are a “hard waiver” student.
Full-time students registered for and taking 12 or more credit hours
Are automatically enrolled in this insurance plan at registration, unless proof of comparable coverage is furnished.
Hard waiver students are required to have health insurance to attend Averett University. You must complete an on-line waiver or enroll in the University’s policy.
Hard Waiver Student Waiver Instructions

Spring/Summer Waiver Deadline: 2/26/17

Your current health insurance plan ID card,
Your health insurance brochure or plan description (or you might want mom & dad’s phone number handy to help answer some of the waiver questions). There might be a few questions about your current plan.
Once you have completed the waiver form, an email will automatically be sent to the email address you provided notifying you of the waiver request decision. If you receive a:
