UC Student Health Requirements
Health Insurance
All UC students are required to have health insurance. Each year, you’ll be automatically enrolled in the UC Student Health Insurance Plan (UC SHIP) unless you submit a waiver by the deadline to use your own insurance that meets specific standards. A new waiver must be submitted annually to ensure coverage still meets the criteria.
Immunization and Tuberculosis (TB) Screening
Students coming to campus for any reason must also meet UC’s immunization and tuberculosis (TB) screening requirements. If you don’t complete and/or submit records of these, you may not be able to register for future classes.
