Health Services Fee
Payment of the Health Services Fee gives students access to the Stamps Health Services Center, which provides comprehensive health and dental care. Housed in a beautifully designed building, the center provides unparalleled services to students. Students pay this fee at registration each session at the Language Institute.

Medical Insurance

  • For F-1 visa holders, this insurance is mandatory. 
  • For non F-1 students, the plan is optional with a different cost structure.

Students pay this fee at registration each session at the Language Institute.
