All Soka students must have health insurance. Students may waive the health insurance fee by submitting a waiver by the deadline. Students must annually complete an online Health Insurance Waiver form to indicate if you will be waiving the Soka health insurance plan. If you are waiving, you must submit a copy of your health insurance card. Otherwise, you will automatically be enrolled in Soka's Student Health Insurance plan.
If you do not want the Student Health Insurance Plan, you must decline or opt-out of coverage by submitting a waiver. You may only opt-out of coverage during the following Waiver Periods:
