Please note: There is not an additional cost for dental coverage. It is included as part of the Student Health Insurance Plan.
If you do not want the Student Health Insurance Plan, you must decline or opt-out of coverage by submitting a waiver. You may only opt-out of coverage during the following Waiver Periods:
Fall - 07/07/2022 - 07/31/2022
Spring/Summer - 12/03/2022 - 01/06/2023
The Spring/Summer waiver deadline ended 01/06/2023. The online waiver system can no longer accept new waiver requests.
All full-time domestic students are automatically enrolled in Oberlin’s Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP). The insurance fee will appear on students’ accounts as an additional charge, separate from tuition and other fees. If students have alternative health insurance coverage, a waiver may be submitted.
To waive the SHIP, Oberlin requires that students provide proof of coverage equal to or better than the coverage provided by Oberlin’s SHIP. Please be advised that the waiver request will be reviewed and verified active with the insurance carrier.
