Mandatory Health Insurance
Effective September 1, 1989, the Massachusetts law C.15A, s. 18 requires that every full-time and part-time student enrolled in an institution of higher learning in Massachusetts participate in a qualifying student health insurance program (QSHIP) or in a health benefit plan with comparable coverage. A part-time student is defined as a student participating in at least 75% of the full-time curriculum or at least nine credits.

As a result, full-time and part-time students taking nine credits or more are automatically billed for individual membership in the health insurance plan sponsored by their colleges or universities. Students must purchase the school-sponsored health plan or show proof of comparable coverage in an alternate health plan in order to enroll in the college/university of their choice. Students must prove comparable coverage by completing a Student Health Insurance Waiver Form. This form is available in the Office of Student Accounts and in each Continuing and Graduate Studies Office. The form must be completed in full and signed by both the policy holder and a Curry College representative to be considered for waiver. 

Complete the waiver online.
