Student Health Insurance
There is a mandatory hard waiver health insurance requirement. All full-time domestic and international students with 12 credits or more are automatically enrolled and billed for the student health insurance plan (SHIP). Graduate full time students (9 credit hours overall) are also automatically enrolled and billed for this health insurance.
Part-time students and students that are registered for *online courses (this refers to classes with specially designated sections that are held asynchronously, and not in real time) only, regardless of the number of credits, are not automatically enrolled for SHIP. However, these students may enroll voluntarily by contacting Haylor at 1-866-535-0456.
Note: Because of COVID and concerns for student safety, all of FIT's on campus sections moved to remote formats. In these, courses are held synchronously and in real time with students and instructor meeting as they would if the course was held on campus. These remote classes, while held through web based tools, are not categorized as online. Online is the designation for those courses that are specifically built to be asynchronous.
