Eligibility Criteria

There are 2 circumstances for opting out of the Student Health and Dental Plan:

1 Fall Academic Term

All students who are eligible for the plan and have comparable Health and Dental coverage from their parents, spouse, government, job, or band may apply if they wish to withdraw from the plan before the fall deadline.

If you miss the fall deadline, your next opportunity to opt out would be next fall.

2 Winter or Spring-Summer Academic Term

Only new eligible students who have comparable health and dental coverage from their parents, spouse, government, job, or band may apply if they wish to withdraw from the plan before the term deadline respectively.

If you miss the winter or spring-summer deadline, your next opportunity to opt out would be next fall.

Things to consider when thinking of opting out:

  • A parents' insurance plan will stop covering you if you are a part-time student over the age of 21 or a full-time student over the age of 25.
  • You can coordinate 2 benefit plans and increase your coverage up to 100%! Find out more Coordination of Benefits
  • What is in the best interest of my overall health & wellbeing?
  • Does my existing coverage meet all of my needs?
  • The only time you can get back on this Student Benefits Plan is on the anniversary of opting out of the plan OR within 30 days of losing your alternate coverage.

Opt-Out Audit

If your application has been chosen for an audit, you may be asked by email to provide documentation of your existing coverage to confirm that you are already covered with comparable Health and Dental Plan. Please do not email any documentation to our offices until you receive an email request.

Important notes:
  • Ontario Health Insurance Plan (OHIP), Guard.me, or The Student Benefits Plan is not acceptable as comparable insurance coverage.
  • Students with comparable coverage can choose to opt out of health, dental, or both.
  • The comparable coverage accepted could be from parents, spouse, work, government, or band.
  • Approval of an opt-out application will result in the plan fee being reimbursed by direct deposit approximately 60 days after classes begin. Once an opt-out application has been accepted, it will remain in force each consecutive year you remain an eligible student.
  • NO EXCEPTIONS will be made if the deadline is missed. It is the student's responsibility to pay the plan's mandatory fees, should they miss the applicable opt-out deadline.
  • Once you complete the opt-out form, you will receive an automated email confirmation. Please keep this email for your records as it is your only proof of submitting an opt-out request.
