Health Insurance
The University of Bridgeport Health Insurance Policy is mandatory for full-time undergraduates, international students, Physician Assistant Students and all residential students.
Students are automatically enrolled in the health insurance plan provided by the University and are billed on their student account. If a domestic student can show proof of comparable private health insurance, the University insurance may be waived by submitting a waiver form by the designated due date.
All students taking classes on campus or living on campus are enrolled in the Injury plan at registration and this may not be waived.

The health insurance waiver for the FALL semester is available from June 1 to September 15. Waivers will not be accepted after the deadline of September 15. If you are enrolling as a new student in the Spring Semester, the deadline is February 15.
