Insurance

Health insurance is mandatory for ALL students enrolled in the School of Medicine at Emory University. Students may purchase the Emory University Student Health Services Insurance Plan (offered by Aetna) OR provide documentation of an existing health insurance plan from an outside carrier that meets mandatory health insurance requirements (see list below). MANDATORY HEALTH INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS FOR PRIVATE CARRIERS If you do not purchase the Aetna insurance plan, you must be able to provide documentation of health insurance coverage that meets all mandatory health insurance requirements. Any outside plan must have at a minimum: Coverage that allows the insured student to receive outpatient, emergency, specialist and inpatient care, diagnostic testing and procedures, and mental health inpatient and outpatient care, including alcohol and substance abuse treatment, in Atlanta, GA. A deductible not greater than $2,500 per policy year. If the annual deductible exceeds $1,050, the insured student must have an approved Healthcare Savings Account (HSA) that will allow the student to seek needed medical and mental health care when recommended by a healthcare provider and will cover all deductible expenses over $1,050. The insurance must be provided by an insurance company domiciled in the United States. Information about insurance requirements, rates, deadlines, and compliance forms will be communicated directly with all accepted students prior to matriculation.

Emory School of Medicine Cancellation and Withdrawal Policy

Registration may be cancelled during the first week of classes as stated in the academic calendar with the precise date each semester. Cancellation of registration means that no deficiencies will be noted on the student’s transcript. A student who wishes to leave the University after the first week must officially withdraw; honorable dismissal requires that this procedure be followed. Withdrawal forms may be obtained at OMESA. Tuition refunds are partial. A student may cancel registration during the first week of the semester in which case only the deposit is forfeited (or twenty five dollars if no deposit was required). After the first week of class, a student may voluntarily withdraw, and the tuition forfeiture increases progressively. Please contact OMESA or the Bursar for a forfeiture percentage schedule. No refund is given if students drop only part of their coursework after the last day specified for approved schedule changes. No refund is given to a student who is dismissed. Refunds for first-time Emory University students who are federal aid recipients (Title IV) will be prorated in accordance with the Higher Education Ammendments of 1992 and any related regulations.
