International Insurance Process• Graduate Student becomes benefits eligible

All newly benefits eligible graduate students receive an email from BSC Benefits notifying them of their eligibility to enroll in employee health insurance. The email also provides instructions on how to elect their coverage via the ERS website, as well as the deadline to do so.

Their insurance is NOT automatic and they MUST elect coverage themselves during their 90 day waiting period. If the graduate student does not elect health insurance during their initial 90 day waiting period they will not be eligible again until Annual Open Enrollment.

Newly eligible international graduate students have a 90 day waiting period and must pay UNT International Insurance during this period.

Grad Students whose employee insurance is still in effect from the previous semester will receive the insurance waiver.

• International Graduate Students who need to have their Student Insurance waived, should go directly to the Student Health and Wellness Center Billing Window.

• Student Health and Wellness Center verifies insurance coverage. Once verified, the International Insurance fee will be waived from the tuition bill.
