International Student Insurance
Per WSU Policy 8.08, International Students are required to have Affordable Care Act (ACA) compliant health insurance during their school career at Wichita State University.
UHCSR student insurance is contracted by the Kansas Board of Regents as a health insurance option for students. You will automatically be charged for this medical insurance unless you have already purchased and can show proof of ACA compliant insurance. It is recommended to confirm your enrollment in this plan for quicker access to services.
