Dependent Coverage

Students may enroll their eligible* dependents in the Student BASIC Plan only. Dependent Enrollment is for the current policy year only and does not automatically roll-over to the next policy year.

The Open Enrollment Deadline for dependents is September 30, 2009, unless you or your dependent has a significant life change (such as marriage, divorce, or the birth or adoption of a child) that directly affects the insurance coverage.

Students enrolled in the Fall Semester: To enroll your dependents in the Student BASIC Plan, visit Aetna Student Health’s website. Click on the “Benefit Details” tab for your school and campus, and then select the “Enroll Your Dependents” button.

Spouse (Student Basic Level): $3,018
Child(ren) (Student Basic Level): $1,651

These rates are separate from the student's own medical insurance charge that is assessed to the student's account.
