Health Insurance

Mandatory Health Insurance for ALL International Students

All international students at Bellevue University are required to have health insurance at all times throughout their academic program at BU. Students who do not have current health insurance that includes coverage for repatriation and medical evacuation benefits will be unable to register for classes until the health insurance requirement has been fulfilled.

Students are responsible for obtaining their own insurance plan directly with the company of their choice. However, the health insurance plan must include benefits for repatriation and medical evacuation to the student’s home country. A list of possible health insurance plans for international students that include the repatriation and medical evacuation benefits can be found here or through the "Insurance Plan Options" link on the left.

Proof of current medical insurance coverage is required to register for classes for each academic session. This means that current proof must be presented to the Academic Advisor each time the student registers.

The Bellevue University International Programs Office is looking forward to a healthy year for all of our students!
