OPT-OUT FORM: The Student wishes to decline the student health and dental plan coverage. Comparable health and dental coverage are presently provided for the student under another insurance plan. The Student understands that s/he would have been able to claim under his/her existing insurance as well as under the student health and dental plan, thereby increasing coverage.

The Student acknowledges that as a result of the opt-out, s/he forfeits all rights to coverage otherwise available to him/her under the student health and dental plan. The Student realizes that s/he will not be able to rejoin the plan until the policy anniversary or unless s/he ceases to be covered by the insurance used to opt-out of the student health and dental plan and apply within 30 days of losing said coverage. The Student must complete the necessary form, pay any fees associated in rejoining the plan and provide the necessary proof of loss of insurance in order to reinstate coverage.

OPT-OUT DEADLINE: The opt-out deadline dates are established by the Institution or Student Organization. You will not be able to opt-out of coverage at any other point during the school year. For example, if your program starts in September, you must opt-out prior to the end of the Fall deadline. The same rule applies for opting in (unless you lose your comparable coverage, see below for loss of coverage information). NO EXCEPTIONS will be made if the deadline is missed. It is The Student's responsibility to pay the plan fees, should they miss the applicable opt out deadline.
