Continuing Students
Massachusetts Law requires that all full-time students be enrolled in a qualifying student health insurance plan.
All students currently enrolled in the Aetna Student Health Plus plan will continue their current coverage.
All other continuing students will be automatically enrolled in the Aetna Student Health Plus individual plan with an effective date of August 23, 2012.
If you do not choose to participate in the plan offered by the university you must document your participation in a health insurance plan with comparable coverage.
