Health Insurance Waiver Form Submission and Agreement

Health Insurance Waiver Form Submission and Agreement

While studying at Hawai‘i Pacific University (HPU), students need to protect their health and financial stability by having adequate health coverage to address minor and major illnesses that may arise, and to avoid unexpected interruption of their education by high medical expenses. Furthermore, all J-1 scholars and their J-2 dependents are required to maintain health insurance coverage that meets U.S. Department of State requirements for their program.

HPU believes that a health insurance policy best satisfies these requirements for our international students. As such, international students are required to have health insurance as a condition of enrollment at the University. To ensure all international students timely meet this requirement, students will be charged a $100 medical insurance late fee if not complete and submitted before or on the 2-week deadline. To avoid this late fee, students should complete and submit the forms below at least 2-weeks before the first day of the semester. In any event, all students shall remain responsible for securing health insurance that meets HPU’s minimum coverage requirements.
