What is the health insurance requirement for students at SUNY Geneseo?

At SUNY Geneseo, the health insurance requirement for students is designed to ensure that all enrolled students have access to adequate health coverage. In general, students are required to have health insurance to help mitigate medical expenses during their time at the university. This requirement applies to all full-time students, which usually includes those taking at least 12 credit hours per semester. Students who do not have their own health insurance policy may enroll in the university’s own health insurance plan, which is often referred to as the Student Health Plan. This plan offers a variety of healthcare services and can provide valuable support for students' medical needs. It is essential for students to demonstrate their insurance coverage during the enrollment process; failure to do so may result in automatically enrolling them in the university's plan, which may incur charges. Students are encouraged to visit the SUNY Geneseo Health and Wellness Center website for detailed information about the health insurance requirements, as well as instructions on how to submit proof of insurance or enroll in the Student Health Plan. It is always best to stay informed by consulting the latest updates on the university’s website.
