International Student Health Coverage - Important

by Martha Blouw

**Important information for all Master's and Ph.D. International Students: Effective September 1, 2018, the Manitoba government has cancelled international student health coverage under the provincial Manitoba Health plan. We are pleased to report that the University of Manitoba has negotiated an international student health agreement with Blue Cross and StudentCare. Through this plan, international students will have access to the same coverage that they had under Manitoba Health. Enrolment in the plan will be mandatory for all registered graduate international students. For the 2018-19 academic year, the University will cover the costs of health care insurance for all registered degree students to help with the transition between health plans. Dependent and family coverage will be available for purchase for an additional cost; this cost will not be covered by the University. You must register for health insurance on or before the registration deadline of September 18, 2018. Additional information, including Health Coverage Frequently Asked Questions is available: http://umanitoba.ca/research/international_centre/health_coverage_faq.html
