The university requires health insurance for all full-time students (those enrolled for 12 or more credit hours) and offers a year-round insurance program for a nominal fee. Insurance information cards and instructions regarding supporting documents are available from the Student Health Center.

A student covered by parent’s insurance must present a valid health insurance card at the time of registration. If a card is not presented, the student will be enrolled in the college’s health plan or will be unable to complete registration.

If you have coverage, you will need to receive a complete understanding of its exclusions and limitations regarding coverage in Texas, specifically Austin. If you carry an indemnity plan with your policy, no matter where a medical bill is generated it will pay. Likewise, some policies cover medical emergencies in any city, but not routine office visits.

Your local insurance representative should be able to answer questions regarding coverage outside your area. It is very important that you have these facts before waiving the school insurance, as Huston-Tillotson University assumes no responsibility for any medical expenses incurred by students.
