Student Health Insurance

Student Health Insurance

Ramapo is pleased to announce that it has joined other State institutions to provide a College-sponsored student health insurance plan. We feel that now more than ever health insurance will benefit our students as we have been suffering through the current health crisis caused by a global pandemic. In addition, students asked for this service and we listened, and have now made available health insurance coverage for all full-time students. The plan being offered for 2023-2024 academic year is through Aetna Student Health. Below is a summary of plan details:

Full-time students are automatically billed for health insurance. Students have the opportunity to waive/opt out of this coverage by providing evidence of health insurance coverage to the College-sponsored insurance company by the posted waiver deadline. The Fall 2023 deadline is September 22, 2023 and the Spring 2024 deadline (when applicable) is February 20, 2024. You must waive coverage by these deadlines or you will be enrolled in the plan and you will be responsible for the charge.

Please allow two days from the date you successfully completed your waiver for the credit to appear on your account.

Fall 2023
The annual Health Insurance fee will be automatically billed to all full-time students during the Fall billing cycle. Students who waive their insurance in the Fall may not enroll in the Spring semester unless there is a Qualifying Life Event as defined by the plan. You may enroll in the health insurance plan within the first 31 days of the life event outside the Open Enrollment Period. To enroll due to a qualifying life event, contact University Health Plan at 833-251-1149.

Spring 2024
The Spring/Summer Health Insurance plan for the Spring 2024 semester will be billed to all new incoming full-time students for the Spring 2024 semester, and can be waived if that student has insurance coverage.
