Yeshiva University requires that all undergraduate and graduate students enrolled for 6 credits or more have health insurance. If you are a US Citizen, you may be enrolled in a family or employer plan. If your plan has a network of providers in New York City, you can apply for a waiver. You will get an email sent to your student email account with instructions on how to access the waiver/enrollment form.
For domestic students who are not currently insured through family or employer plans and for international students, Yeshiva University has partnered with UHP to provide health insurance through Aetna that meets ACA and Visa Requirements.
Students in Online Degree Programs are exempt from/ineligible for the Yeshiva University Student Health Insurance Plan.
