2 May 2016

Update

Updated language regarding student insurance in the Expenses and Financial Aid  section.

All international students attending Alliant International University are required to obtain health insurance coverage during their tenure at Alliant. To fulfill this health insurance requirement, students must purchase a health insurance policy that meets all US Immigration insurance requirements.  All new, incoming international students must demonstrate coverage on or before their arrival, with their own medical insurance coverage.  If students fail to demonstrate coverage upon their arrival, they will be required to show proof of coverage before registering for classes. F-1 and J-1 students are expected to communicate their intentions to the Office of International Students and Scholars on or before their arrival. All coverage choices for continuing international students must be evaluated on a yearly basis, consistent with Alliant University’s academic year period. All international students must show proof of compliant health insurance coverage at the start of each academic year. (or their first semester at Alliant if starting during an alternate semester or term). Without showing proof of health insurance each year, students will not be permitted to register for courses.

Students must choose health insurance that meets the provisions below:

a. Effective throughout the semester and renewable for continuous coverage
b. Minimum dollar coverage of $100,000 per illness or injury
c. Include outpatient care (doctor visits, outpatient surgery, etc.)
d. Include hospitalization
e. Repatriation for at least $25,000
f. Medical evacuation for at least $50,000
g. Cost of deductible, if any, does not exceed $500 per accident or illness

Please direct any questions you may have regarding health insurance coverage to your campus DSO or Student Advisor.

Updated Immunization policy in the Admissions and Registration section to reflect Alliant no longer offering on-campus housing.

Immunizations

The University is committed to protecting the health and well-being of all our students. All students must meet a specific immunization requirement. If you have graduated from a California public high school, you may have already met this requirement. To meet this requirement, you may bring a completed immunization record form or send medical documentation or laboratory evidence as proof of immunity to the Director of Campus Services (to the Health Center for San Diego) after admission to the University. In addition to the immunizations required for all students, in order to reside in an on-campus housing facility students must have an immunization for Neisseria Meningitis.
