Health Insurance
Posted by Jules - July 17, 2007 at 05:07:20 pmSo on the 16th of July, University Health Services sent out a serious toned email stating that the last day to cancel Student Health Insurance (SHIP) *will be* the 15th of July (everyone got that?) or fines would be incurred. This understandably made some people a little confused and concerned. One of the incoming fall graduate students asked our student advisor about whether we have to pay for health insurance ourselves.
To which our student advisor replied:
We cover it. Silly university always sends out vaguely threatening emails. We’ll be paying for that until you graduate.
[Student Advisor]
Hehe… well, at least I thought it was funny. >_>
I took a look at the UHS SHIP web page after the vaguely threatening email was released, and noticed that filing fee students have to pay way more per year (people who are done with all classes and research, and only have their final dissertation/thesis to write). I guess it encourages them to finish quickly.
UCB undergraduates $610 per semester
UCB graduate and international students $805 per semester
Filing Fee Students (out of Bay Area) $1,255 per semester
Filing Fee Students (in Bay Area) $1,510 per semester
Mills undergraduate $1,146 per semester
Mills graduate and international students $1,237 per semester
