STUDENT HEALTH INSURANCE
Health insurance coverage is mandatory for all international students enrolled at Kansas State University, regardless of their course load.
Beginning in Fall 2009, insurance coverage will be automatically included in international student tuition bills, and students will no longer be required to make separate payment arrangements. Students will still be free to choose alternative insurance so long as their plan's coverage meets or exceeds the minimum requirements listed listed on the health insurance information page. In order to use alternate insurance, students must complete and submit the Student Health Insurance Waiver form no later than the 20th day of classes each semester. Once a waiver request is submitted and approved, the insurance charge will be removed from the tuition bill. To obtain information about the waiver process, click here.
