The University Health Insurance Plan (UHIP) is a mandatory insurance to pay the cost of the hospital and medical services that international students may need during their stay in Canada while registered at the University. The fee is compulsory, and it is charged as part of your tuition and fees which can be viewed on WebAdvisor. The student must register online to receive a UHIP coverage card.
All international students (paying international fees) will automatically be enrolled in UHIP (single coverage). If the student has dependents in Canada that should be added to their plan, it is the student's responsibility to complete the UHIP application and submit it to Student Financial Services (3rd floor of the UC). An additional premium is charged.
