All International and Exchange Program (including Study Abroad) Students are mandated to have insurance and eligible to enroll in USF’s Student Health Insurance Plan. To activate enrollment in the USF Student Health Insurance Plan, Students pay USF directly via OASIS prior to the 1st day of the term or submit a waiver, providing proof of an adequate alternative policy.
Intercollegiate Athletes, College of Marine Science, College of Medicine, College of Pharmacy, College of Nursing, and students participating in Optical Practical Training (OPT) or Curricular Practical Training (CPT) are mandated to have insurance and eligible to enroll in the USF Student Health Insurance Plan.

Graduate/Research/Teaching Assistants (GA/RA/TA) employed by USF in one of the following job codes: 9181, 9182, 9183, 9184, 9185, or 9550 that work a minimum of 10 hours a week (.25 FTE of higher) are eligible to enroll in the USF Student Health Insurance Plan during open enrollment, as outlined by the University. If you are an international GA student, enrolling in coverage is mandatory. Once you have an offer letter, allow 3-5 business days for an activation invite email from the Academic HealthPlans enrollment portal, Care26 ([email protected]). You must have this invite to be able to enroll for the GA/RA/TA Subsidy Insurance Policy. You may see the premium amount listed when going through this process. You will not be required to make payment at this time. USF GA students will pay the subsidized employee portion via payroll deduction and the breakdown can be found here.
