You meet the eligibility criteria to add dependents to your plan at this time.
The deadline to submit your Family Add-On application is September 30th, 2025. After the deadline, the online form will be available only for students with lifestyle changes.
You may apply within 30 days of the lifestyle change. After 30 days, your application will be denied.
Complete the online form below to submit your application. Completing the questionnaire does not mean that your application is approved, the Student Benefits Plan Office will confirm your eligibility and process your application.
You must provide documentation such as a marriage certificate, birth certificate, or adoption documents by emailing georgianplan@mystudentplan.ca. You have 10 business days to email the proper documentation or your application will be denied.
The Family Add-on fees are non-refundable and are not automatically renewed. Students must apply and purchase family coverage every fall term if they wish to keep their family members covered.
There is up to a 60-day validation period from the start of the term. During this time, you would have to pay out of pocket for all eligible Health and Dental expenses and keep the receipts. After the enrollment process is complete, you will be able to submit online claims for reimbursement, and your Benefits Card will be automatically activated.
Once you submit the Family add-on form, you will receive an automated email confirmation. Please keep this email for your records as it is your only proof of submitting a family add-on request.
It appears you do not meet the criteria to add dependents to your plan at this time.
Opting out of the health and dental plans is a one-time process. This means students do not need to apply every term or year, and the Health and Dental Plan does not cover them.
As you opted out of the plan, you are not covered and cannot add your family to the plan. However, if you wish to re-enroll in the Student Health and Dental Plan, you must meet the eligibility criteria and complete an online application on our website. For more information, please visit www.mystudentplan.ca/georgian/en/forms/opt-in
If you are not a new spring-summer student, you do not meet the eligibility to add dependents.
If you are not a new winter student, you do not meet the eligibility to add dependents.
Only students enrolled in the Student Benefits Plan who have a lifestyle change such as getting married, common-law status or birth/adopting a child may apply to add their dependents at any time of the academic year within 30 days from the lifestyle change date.
If you have not been assessed the Health Insurance Fee and Dental Insurance Fee on your student account, you are not eligible for the Student Benefits Plan.
All eligible domestic and international students enrolled in an eligible program as having full-time status at the Georgian College are automatically enrolled in the Health and Dental Plan and may apply to add their dependents.
The next opportunity to submit your online family add-on application would be in the upcoming fall term.
