JOHNSON & WALES UNIVERSITY

Student Health Insurance Plan
SUMMER 2026 and ANNUAL 2026-2027 WAIVER FORM

PLEASE  NOTE, THIS WAIVER IS ONLY FOR NEWLY REGISTERED STUDENTS FOR SUMMER 2026. THIS WAIVER WILL OPT YOU OUT OF SUMMER 2026 AND THE 2026-2027 ACADEMIC YEAR. THIS WAIVER IS VALID THROUGH JULY 31, 2027. A NEW WAIVER FORM MUST BE SUBMITTED EACH ACADEMIC YEAR FOLLOWING THE 2026-2027 ACADEMIC YEAR. 

All undergraduate day students, both domestic and international, all international graduate students, and any graduate student required to be enrolled under programmatic requirements (e.g., students enrolled in the Physician Assistant Program, on-campus Occupational Therapy Program, Addiction Counseling or Clinical Mental Health Counseling master's degree programs, etc.), registered and attending Johnson & Wales University and taking credit hours (excluding full-time Johnson & Wales employees) are eligible and enrolled in the plan on a hard waiver basis. Whether a student is “registered” and “attending” shall be determined exclusively by Johnson & Wales University. 

Eligible students who have other health insurance coverage (i.e. under a parent’s or employer’s plan) and do not want to be enrolled in the SHIP must submit an online waiver documenting their other coverage prior to the posted deadline each academic year. Once a waiver form is successfully submitted, the insurance charge is removed from the student’s account within approximately seven business days.

Students who miss their waiver deadline will be enrolled in the SHIP and responsible for paying the insurance premium.

The summer waiver deadline has been extended to 5/8
