For those students who do not submit an approved waiver form before the deadline, you will be required to purchase the Student Health Insurance Plan. Please refer to the “Enroll Now” tab for further instructions. If you do not meet one of these requirements a hold will be placed on your student account and you will be unable to enroll in classes.
