Student Health Insurance

Updated November 3, 2023

Beginning for the 2023 - 2024 school year, CBU is no longer requiring the submission of a health insurance waiver, but will be offering an opt-in student health insurance plan through Wellfleet Student for the following CBU domestic student populations. 

  • All traditional graduate and undergraduate students enrolled for 7 or more units.
  • All traditional graduate students in the Athletic Training, Physician Assistant, Social Work, Speech Language Pathology programs enrolled for 1 or more units.
  • All traditional Nursing Students enrolled for 1 or more units.

Please note that there is no longer any dependent coverage available through the new Wellfleet Student Health Insurance Plan.

For California residents, additional health insurance options are also available through Covered California.

International students are still required to have the Student Health Insurance, and will continue to be automatically enrolled in the program.  International Students DO NOT have to complete the request form.

  • How Do I Opt-In and Purchase the Student Health Insurance?

    Eligible students who would like to purchase the Student Health Insurance must complete the Student Health Insurance Request Form.  Students who purchased insurance in the Fall Semester do not have to rerequest for the Spring Semester.

    Please remember that this form is for those students requesting to PURCHASE the insurance.  It is NOT a waiver.  Waivers are no longer required.

    Once the form is received and eligibility is confirmed the charge will be added to the individual’s student account.  Enrollment will be submitted to Wellfleet Student once University Card Services receives the notification of payment from the Student Accounts office.
