IEC Student Handbook: Medical Insurance & Immunization
All full-time students on F-1 student visas must have medical insurance while studying at the IEC. Students will be asked to show proof of insurance during IEC registration and must show proof no later than Day 5 of the session. If a student does not have health insurance, they must purchase CU Gold health insurance at the time of registration.
Students can have their own insurance purchased before coming to the U.S. You must show the IEC your health insurance card for proof of coverage. Otherwise, you need to pay for the CU Gold health insurance.
If you are a government-sponsored student, please read the information you receive from your sponsor to see if you have insurance coverage. Sometimes, there are certain costs which are not covered, such as dental work. If you do not have insurance from your sponsor, you must have CU Gold health insurance (see below). If you have insurance from your sponsor, you must take the information regarding this coverage to your appointment with the doctor so he may charge your sponsor for the services. It is very important that you give the doctor the address of your sponsor.
If you do not have medical insurance, the IEC will provide you with it. This insurance plan is called the CU Gold Plan. This insurance plan does not include dental work, except in case of an accident. Please refer to the insurance brochure available in the IEC front office for more details. When you pay your tuition and fees, you will pay the cost of the Gold Plan. If you have any questions, please speak with the IEC Business Manager.
