Health Insurance

All exchange visitors and their accompanying dependents at the California State University, 麻豆蜜桃AV are required to have health insurance coverage that meets the University's standards. 

If your government or program sponsor is providing you with health insurance, you will later have the opportunity to apply for a waiver of the mandatory health insurance. In order for a waiver to be granted, your health insurance coverage must be proven to meet CSUEB standards, so please bring a copy of the insurance policy with you to the U.S.

You must maintain valid Health Insurance coverage throughout your entire stay in the USA (including any academic training)
