Opt-Out Eligibility

Students enrolled in the Student Health and Dental Plan may opt out when they are starting the fall term.

How to Opt Out

To Opt Out, you must be enrolled in the Student Benefits Plan, meet the Opt-Out eligibility criteria, and complete the online form before the applicable term deadline.

Things to consider:
  • A parents' insurance plan ceases coverage until you turn either 18 or 21, or up to 25 if you are studying full-time at a recognized education institution.
  • Nova Scotia Provincial Health Care, Nova Scotia Pharmacare or the StFX Student Benefits Plan is not acceptable as comparable insurance coverage.
  • The comparable coverage accepted could be from parents, spouse, work, government, or band.
  • First Nations and Aboriginal students who do not have a policy number, please provide your Band Name and Number when you are completing the information about the insurance company and policy number.
  • You can coordinate two benefit plans to maximize your coverage, potentially reaching up to 100% coverage! Find out more Coordination of Benefits.
  • Students with comparable coverage can choose to opt out of the health, dental, or both plans.
  • If your application has been chosen for an audit, you may be asked by email to provide documentation of your existing coverage to confirm that you are already covered with comparable Health and Dental Plan. Please do not email any documentation to our offices until you receive an email request.
  • The only time you can get back on this Student Benefits Plan is on the anniversary of opting out of the plan OR within 30 days of losing your alternate coverage.
  • Approval of the Students opt-out will result in the plan fee being refunded according to the school's policy. The Opt-Out result is a one-time process. This means students do not need to apply every term or year.
  • NO EXCEPTIONS will be made if the deadline is missed. It is the student's responsibility to pay the plan's mandatory fees, should they miss the applicable opt-out deadline.
  • Once you complete the opt-out form, you will receive an automated email confirmation. Please keep this email for your records as it is your only proof of submitting an opt-out request.
