Health insurance is mandatory for all full-time degree, resident, and international students, unless the student is covered under another comparable health insurance plan. Health insurance will be charged to your student account unless the university receives a health insurance waiver. A waiver can only be submitted if you have your own health insurance. You may also submit a waiver for an insurance charge already on your student account.
The waiver is available through the online AU Portal, and must be submitted electronically using the portal. Health insurance waivers must be filled out by the deadline date, August 1, 2011, specified by the Student Health Center. If the student has missed the filing deadline, Insurance Waiver Appeals are not normally granted. To contact the Health Center, please call (202) 885-3380.
You will need to go log into the AU portal to waive your health insurance. Once you have waived it, the charge will be removed from your student account within the next two business days.
