Canadian students »
While we recognize that Canadian students have provincially-subsidized health care administered by their own government, the college feels strongly that the Canadian provincial plans offer only limited coverage for health care received in the United States. We therefore require Canadian students to carry supplemental insurance in order to waive out of enrollment in the Student Health Insurance Plan.
International students »
Health care costs in the United States can be very expensive. That is why the college sponsors its own affordable student health insurance plan. This plan is designed to help pay the high costs of hospital, surgical, and other medical expenses while studying in the United States. All international students are required to enroll in KnightCare in order to meet the college's minimum insurance standard.
