Enroll yourself and eligible dependents on MyUW on-line through the first 7 calendar days of the quarter (for autumn quarter, it is the Tuesday after school starts; for winter, spring and summer quarters it is the Sunday after school starts)
You may NOT enroll in the plan by just sending in the premium. If you sign up for the plan during preregistration, the premium will be included on your tuition statement sent to you after the quarter begins. If you enroll in the plan after the quarter begins, you may not receive an adjusted bill but can access your balance on-line at MyUW.
You may not cancel your insurance by not paying the premium - you must cancel your insurance selection through MyUW on-line within the first 7 calendar days of the quarter. You may cancel in person at the Student Accounts Office within the first 5 calendar days of the quarter.
The premium is due by the tuition due date, the 3rd Friday of the quarter. Failure to pay the premium by that date will result in subsequent bills being sent and may result in a hold being placed on your records. FINANCIAL AID WILL PAY THE INSURANCE PREMIUM AUTOMATICALLY, in most cases, but you should check the conditions of your aid and whether it is sufficient to pay all required charges, including the insurance premium.
Cancellation of coverage after the first 7 calendar days of the quarter is not permitted - except in the event the student enters military service on full-time active duty or a student's withdrawal from the University is dated within the first 7 calendar days of the quarter.
