Current Students
Included in Your Bill
If you are an international student (under a specific visa status in the United States), and are physically taking classes at the College (completely online students are excluded from this), you will have international health insurance on your bill. You will see a charge and then a refund of $25 of accident insurance since your international health insurance covers this, so you will not be charged double coverage.
Staying in the residence halls
If you are an international student living in the residence halls, you will automatically be charged for “break housing” to cover the various college vacation break times that you will need to stay in the halls. Many other domestic students, like athletes, also are charged this fee, and if you will not be staying the mid-term or staying late and will need NO additional time in the residence halls when they are normally closed, you need to ask for a waiver of this break housing from the housing office in C building (Tioga Hall) in the first floor main office. They will then process the change to your bill.
