Health Insurance

Health insurance is required for all UNCW students who meet the following three criteria:

  • Enrolled in a minimum of 6 credit hours per semester for undergraduates or 1 credit hour for graduate students, and
  • Enrolled in a main-campus degree-seeking program, and
  • Eligible to pay the UNCW student health fee.

Students who have their own insurance and do not want to purchase the insurance through the school must complete an on-line waiver each term, providing details about their current insurance plan. Any student who does not waive out of the insurance plan will be charged the premium and automatically enrolled in the program.
