Health Insurance
All degree-seeking international students on J-1 or F-1 visas must maintain NU-SHIP coverage throughout their studies, as alternative plans often lack necessary benefits and can lead to financial or visa-related issues. We encourage students to review their coverage early and enroll between July 1 and Oct. 1 to ensure uninterrupted access to benefits. For more details, visit the Student Health Insurance website. If you have questions concerning health insurance requirements, you may contact the student health insurance team directly by emailing student.insurance@northwestern.edu
