International Students in F-1 and J-1 Status
NOTE: to International Students in F-1 and J-1 Status
As a condition of enrollment, ALL international students in F-1 status are required to purchase the International Sickness and Injury Plan sponsored by UNH. There are NO EXCEPTIONS to this university policy.
Students in J-1 status are required to purchase the UNH plan unless one of the following applies: 1) insurance is provided by the student’s home government or 2) insurance is provided by a non-UNH J program sponsor, or 3) students are participating in an exchange program between UNH and their home academic institutions and the formal agreement does not specify that students have to purchase the UNH plan. In these instances, the J-1 student must provide documentation of their insurance coverage. If the insurance coverage is not in compliance with US Department of State minimum requirements, the student will be required to purchase the UNH plan.
