Health insurance

The student health insurance program offers a comprehensive health insurance package for VCU students through our partners, United Health Care.

All full-time Ph.D. students, first professional students (D.D.S., M.D., Pharm.D.) and international students (those on F- and J-visas) are eligible for the student health insurance program. A hard waiver applies for these student populations, meaning that they will be required to enroll in the program if they are unable to provide proof of other insurance.

For more information on the graduate student health insurance program, visit the Office of the Provost’s student health insurance page. More information on student health and alternative options for health insurance can be found on the University Student Health Services website.
