What is the Student Health Insurance Requirement?

Georgetown University requires most students, according to registration criteria, to have health insurance. Eligible students are charged for and required to purchase health insurance unless they complete a waiver that proves they have coverage that meets the University’s requirements. Students with existing health insurance may waive the fee for the Student Health Insurance Plan online. If you have been assessed the Health Insurance Charge, you will have the option of completing the Student Health Insurance Waiver Survey. Follow the instructions below to access the survey, and answer all the questions presented to you. 

How do I waive my Student Health Insurance?

Note: Only students can complete the following steps, authorized users cannot.

  • Access the Student Health Insurance Survey via https://studenthealthinsurance.georgetown.edu/waive-coverage/

  • Towards the bottom of the page, click on the appropriate selection to access the Acceptance or Waiver Form for the intended semester or school year

  • Enter your NetID and Password when prompted

  • If you wish to waive student health insurance, select ‘I elect to waive the Premier Plan’ for Question 2 (Q2)

  • Answer the remaining questions, upload the necessary documents, and submit the survey


Who do I contact for questions?

The Student Health Insurance Office reviews each survey submitted. During high volume periods of the year, it may take as many as 5 business days to see the charge reversed on your student account. Questions about the charge and the survey should be directed to that office by phone at (202)687-4883 or by emailing the Student Health Insurance Office.
