You are eligible to waive student health insurance if you meet the following criteria.

• You are already covered by an insurance plan provided by a company licensed to do business in the United States, with a U.S. claims payment office and a U.S. phone number.
• Your plan is currently active and you agree to maintain health insurance coverage throughout the entire 2024-25 academic year.
• Your plan covers inpatient and outpatient medical care within the Oxford Ohio area (including hospitalization, surgery, medical equipment, pregnancy, and routine care). Emergency and urgent care only coverage does not satisfy the requirement.

Once the waiver request is submitted and the information is verified, a confirmation email is sent to your ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú email account, and a credit is posted to your bursar bill. The deadline to request the waiver is August 31. Students whose enrollment status changes to full-time Oxford (e.g. newly registered students, full-time to part-time, regional relocation, etc.) will have the opportunity to request a waiver at the time of the change even if it is after the deadline.
