Make sure you have hospitalization insurance
All students are required to have hospitalization insurance. Determine first if you will be covered by your own or your parents’ insurance plan. If so, bring this information with you to Orientation. You will be asked to provide the name of your insurance company and policy number at the time of registration. If you do not have your own insurance, will not be covered by your parents' insurance, or you fail to input hospitalization insurance information on the registration page, you will be automatically enrolled in the University-sponsored health benefit plan. To learn more about the University plan, visit www.bhs.umn.edu or call 612-624-0627.
Attention International Students
