As a condition of enrollment, the University of San Francisco will require full time graduate students to have health insurance beginning the 2013-2014 academic year. Graduate students registered for 6 or more credit hours will be automatically enrolled and charged for the USF-sponsored health insurance plan. Students, who already have a health insurance plan comparable to or better than the USF-Sponsored health insurance, may petition to waive or opt out of the health insurance requirement each academic year.

Student Health Insurance Survey
Health Promotion Services has created a quick survey that will assist us in determining the USF sponsored health insurance plan benefits for the 2013-2014 academic year. Please be advised when completing the survey that an increase in the level of coverage and richness of benefits will result in an increase in plan premiums (annual/monthly cost). If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact Health Promotion Services at 415-422-5797.
