Mandatory Health Insurance


-Back to Table of Contents -


SMU is committed to the health and well-being of all students. The Student Health Center is here to serve and provide students with medical care while attending the University. To ensure that students have proper healthcare coverage, a mandatory health insurance requirement was passed by the President’s Executive Council in February 2008. This mandatory health insurance policy requires domestic students, both undergraduate and graduate, enrolled in nine or more credit hours to keep insurance coverage as a condition of enrollment. All international students enrolled in one or more credit hours must enroll in the Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP), unless they receive a special waiver personally granted by the SMU Insurance Department. Optional Dental Insurance enrollment will be available via online enrollment through Academic Health Plans website at http://smu.myahpcare.com.
