Summer health fee waivers for graduate students
March 19, 2021 11:02 AM

Dear Graduate Students,

Due to the exceptional circumstances under the pandemic, the Graduate College, with the support of the Chancellor and the Office of the Provost, has approved an emergency modification to the existing Summer Automatic Waiver Policy for 2021. This modification will extend the fee waivers under this policy to include partial coverage of the Health Insurance Fee and full coverage of the Health Service Fee.

The Summer Automatic Waiver Policy provides graduate students who do not have a summer waiver-generating appointment, but who held one in the previous spring, a summer automatic waiver if they register in the summer term.

As a result of the emergency modification for Summer 2021, a summer automatic waiver will provide the same tuition waiver granted during Spring 2021 plus a waiver for the following fees: Service Fee, AFMFA Fee, Library/Technology Fee, 87% of the Health Insurance Fee and full waiver of the Health Service Fee.

This plan underscores our campus commitment to assisting our students to navigate the many challenges associated with the COVID-19 pandemic. Additional information about the program and about summer health coverage is available on the Graduate College website.

Sincerely,

Wojtek Chodzko-Zajko
Dean, Graduate College
