SCI-Arc requires that all full-time and part-time degree-seeking students who are enrolled in academic units have health insurance coverage.
International students engaged in Optional Practical Training (OPT) through the Institute are eligible to enroll in the plan for up to one year (or the length of the OPT term, whichever is the lesser) beyond their regular course of study, provided they:
- Were enrolled in the coverage described in this brochure in the immediately preceding term; and submit an enrollment form and payment (by mail) to Academic Health Insurance Services within 30 days of the termination date of the immediately preceding term; and
- Submit proof of Optional Practical Training (either a copy of the second page of their I-20 which lists their OPT dates, their Employment Authorization Card, or an official letter from the Institute stating their OPT dates).
Students on a qualified leave of absence may also enroll in the plan for up to one year. Please contact Student Services Specialist Tea Bogue at [email protected] or at (213) 356-5388 for more information.
The Company maintains its right to investigate student status and attendance records to verify that the policy eligibility requirements have been met.
Coverage for dependents is not available under this plan.
