- Undergraduate/Continuing Education students registered for 9 or more credits.
- Graduate students registered for 9 or more credits.
- Graduate students with "Grad 903" status.
- ALL Medical Students.
Is there a deadline for Fall 2012?
YES! The deadline to enroll in or waive UVM Student Health Insurance is September 15, 2012. Students who fail to complete the Insurance Decision/Waiver form will be automatically enrolled in the UVM plan.

Student Health Insurance Implications of
the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act
The Final Rule for Student Health Insurance Coverage was released in the Federal Register on March 21, 2012 with an effective date of April 20, 2012. This rule and other Health Care Reform requirements will impact University sponsored Student Health plans and operation of Student Health Centers nationwide. We are working closely with our professional staff and business partners to continue providing quality and affordable care to the student community.
The UVM Student Health Insurance brochure for the 2012-2013 policy year, including full health coverage details, should be available soon.
