GET HEALTH INSURANCE
All LIM students are required to have health insurance. If you aren’t already covered by your own or your family’s plan, don’t worry, we provide a student health insurance plan (through Gallagher).
And to make sure that everyone is covered from Day One, we automatically apply a charge for student health insurance to your account.
- If you don’t have your own coverage already, you’re all set. You can visit www.gallagherstudent.com/LIM for information on plan benefits, prescription drug coverage, finding a doctor and how to submit a claim.
- If you will have your own insurance or be covered by your family’s plan, all you have to do is submit a waiver to the Office of Student Financial Services with proof of that coverage, and we’ll remove that student health insurance charge.
