If you are considering waiving Salve’s Student Health Insurance Plan, please note that some insurance plans are restrictive and may leave students essentially uninsured while away at school. This could result in you incurring substantial out-of-pocket costs for medical care. In evaluating your plan, you must verify the following.
Waiver Process: For students, participation in the Salve Regina University Health Insurance Plan is mandatory unless you are enrolled in another comparable health insurance plan. If you choose to waive, you will need to provide proof of comparable coverage by submitting the on-line waiver form by August 15, 2023.
