To comply with Massachusetts state regulations, all students are automatically charged for and enrolled in the student health insurance plan through Gallagher Koster. Visit the College's health and counseling services page to understand choices regarding health insurance coverage.

If you do not waive the student health insurance plan by the deadline at www.gallagherkoster.com/Hampshire (access opens July 1), the insurance charge will remain on the student bill as a balance due.

Fees charged for the student health insurance plan are separate from the health services fee, which pays for using the College's health and counseling services.

Student Health Insurance Plan Deadlines:

• The deadline for waiving the Hampshire College Student Health Insurance Plan is August 11.
• Between August 12 and September 15, waiving is only considered under appeal with an online Petition to Waive. 
• Coverage begins August 15. If insurance is used at any time after coverage commences, waiving is no longer an option.
