Students are encouraged to carry health and accident insurance. Many
plans carry students on their parents’ coverage if they are under the
age of 27. Westminster’s website has a list of many plans, as there are
different options and rates available to students. Cost may vary
somewhat due to the student's age. Please contact the Dean of Students
Office for more information. All international students and student
athletes attending Westminster College are required to carry insurance
coverage. Students admitted to the nursing program are required to
provide evidence of health insurance coverage.
We recommend that all students participating in activity-based Human
Performance and Wellness courses (HPW), Outdoor Education, Leadership courses (OEL), and/or trips through the Fitness, Wellness,
and Recreation department/Outdoor Program are encouraged to carry
personal health insurance. In case of accident, injury or illness your
personal health insurance will be the primary provider.
