All students in F or J immigration status whose visa documents are
issued by Rutgers are required to have at least the basic and the major-medical insurance coverages described on the Student Health Insurance page in this catalog. The costs for insurance
are charged to
such students on their term bills, unless they have been exempted
because they have other coverage or they are fellows whose major-medical fee is being covered by the graduate school. All accompanying
family members
(spouse and children) also must be insured. Except for students with
full assistantships that provide family coverage as an employee
benefit, insurance coverage for
spouses and children must be purchased at the Center for International
Faculty and Student Services, Rutgers, The State University of New
Jersey, 180 College Avenue, New Brunswick, NJ 08901-8537
(732-932-7402).
