Health Insurance

It is required all students have health insurance during enrollment in the College. Students from outside the immediate area are urged to contact their insurance benefits administrator to learn how their insurance covers them while they are in college. If you are a citizen of the United States and are not currently covered by health insurance, we advise you to visit the healthcare.gov website. If you live in Pennsylvania, visit COMPASS, an online tool for PA residents to search for a plan that may work for you. The College does not offer a health insurance plan for students, though there is information about Student and Young Adult Health Insurance Plans. International students are encouraged to purchase an international student plan that may meet their needs. The following is a link to one of many international student health care plans: International Student Insurance. If you have any other questions please feel free to contact health services directly.

Appointments can be scheduled by phone, email, or in person at the student health center. Visits are available Monday through Wednesday. Appointments are free.
