Student Health Insurance Plan

Our student health insurance plan for the 2012-13 academic year is provided by Aetna Student Health, an Aetna company in partnership with USI Northwest. The policy is a comprehensive medical plan. A schedule of benefits is included in the mailer sent to all matriculating and continuing students in May. You can also download a PDF describing Aetna's coverage.
