The six credit hour requirement is waived for Summer if the applicant was enrolled in this plan as a full-time student in the immediately preceding Spring term.
The student must actively attend classes for at least the first 31 days after the date for which coverage is purchased with the exception of International Visiting Scholars. Home study, correspondence, and online courses do not fulfill the eligibility requirements that the student actively attend classes.

If and whenever the Company discovers that the Policy eligibility requirements have not been met, its only obligation is refund of premium.
Eligible students who do enroll may also insure their Dependents. Eligible Dependents are the student’s legal spouse and dependent children under 26 years of age.

Preferred Providers are the physicians, hospitals, and other health care providers who have contracted to provide specific medical care at negotiated prices. You should always confirm the Preferred Provider is part of the network, as this can change without notice by calling the Company at 1-888-251-6253 and/or by asking the provider.
The Preferred Provider for your plan is UnitedHealthcare Options PPO. If care is received from a Preferred Provider, any Covered Medical Expenses will be paid at the Preferred Provider level of benefits. Reduced or lower benefits will be provided when an Out-of-Network provider is used. By using a Preferred Provider you can also save yourself some out of pocket expenses.
