Benefit Coverage Period

For students who start their program in September, their coverage begins September 1, 2023, and ends on August 31, 2024.  Unless you graduate at the end of the fall semester or leave your program at the end of the fall semester, your coverage is terminated on December 31, 2023 because you will not be assessed the winter fees. For students who are finishing their program in April, you have paid winter fees, therefore, your coverage expires August 31, 2024.

Family Coverage

You may enroll your spouse (including a common law or same sex partner) and/or children as your dependents at the beginning of your first eligible term. Visit www.studentcare.ca for current rates and applications forms. You must apply in the first term in which you are registered (proof required).

Please note: Your dependents’ coverage is only valid if you are covered under the Plan. If you are graduating in December 2023 and wish to enroll your spouse and/or dependent children in the Plan this fall, you must commit to enrolling in the 12-Month Extended Insurance Plan for graduating students in writing by Sept. 30, 2023. The 12-Month Extended Insurance Plan covers you from Jan. 1 – Dec. 31, 2024. 50% of the family enrolment fee you paid in September 2023 will be deducted from the cost of the 12-Month Extended Insurance Plan fee that you will pay in January.
