Beginning in Fall 2010, health insurance will be required for all UNCW students. This may be insurance the students bring with them (family, employer, etc), insurance they purchase through the school, or a combination of both plans. Students who have their own insurance and do not want to purchase the insurance through the school will need to complete an on-line waiver each fall, 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.

Students who wish to enroll in the insurance plan will be able to go online to complete their enrollment.

Details about the vendor and the plan specifics will be available in Dec, 2009. Please check back for details.

By participating in a student health insurance program utilized by the entire UNC system, it appears we will be able to offer students a better insurance plan at a lower cost than in the past.

For students wishing to purchase insurance for Fall 2009 we will still be offering the voluntary plan through Pearce & Pearce. Click on the link below for more information. Fall information should be on-line by mid-April.
