Controller's Office

Jacksonville University Student Health Insurance

All full-time Traditional Undergraduate students enrolled for a minimum of twelve (12) credit hours will automatically be enrolled in the Jacksonville University Student Medical Insurance Plan and the premium for coverage is added to the tuition billing upon registration.  Coverage can be waived if evidence of other comparable coverage is presented prior to the waiver deadline.
General Rules for Enrollment
Students may enroll after the deadline only if there has been a significant life change (i.e. loss of prior coverage) and should contact the Jacksonville University Student Health Insurance Administrator at (904) 256-7080 or health@ju.edu.  A written request must be submitted to the Controller’s Office with documentation as to why they no longer are insured. As will as proof of dropped coverage from the prior carrier. The rate will be pro-rated based on the month the student enrolls.  

Special note for International Students
Waivers will only be accepted if your insurance coverage is based in the United States and the policy must be printed in English.

Special note for Active Duty Military Students
If you are non-NROTC Active Duty you will need to provide a completed waiver form and a letter from your CO, which states that you have full health and accident coverage.

Special note for Military Dependent Students

If you have Tricare Prime, a copy of your insurance card is still a requirement. If you do not have your card, please visit www.humana-military.com to access your card online.

If you have Tricare Standard or Extra, your military ID card should not be photocopied. Please submit your waiver in person to someone in the Controller's Office and show them your ID. They will then mark your waiver as showing proof.
