Dental Opt-Out applications are now closed

Fall students! If you missed the fall deadline, your next opportunity to apply will be next fall term. The fall application period for opt-outs and enrollments was from August 1st, 2025 to September 19th, 2025, while the deadline for family add-ons was September 26th, 2025.

Dental Opt-Out Applications

Submit your dental opt-out application before the deadline. The Student Health Plan is mandatory. Therefore, there is no Health Plan Opt-Out.

Winter Application Period

December 1st, 2025 to January 23rd, 2026

Make sure to submit your form by January 23rd as the online form won't be accessible after that date.

There is no opt-out form available during the spring-summer term.

Opt-Out Eligibility

There are 2 circumstances in which students enrolled in the Student Dental Plan may opt out: (1) when they are starting the fall term, or (2) when they are new students in winter term.

Opt-Out Eligibility

How to Opt Out

To Opt Out, you must be enrolled in the Student Benefits Plan, meet the Opt-Out eligibility criteria, have proof of comparable dental coverage, and complete the online form before the applicable term deadline.

Steps to Opt-Out
Things to consider:
  • A parents' insurance plan ceases coverage until you turn either 18 or 21, or up to 25 if you are studying full-time at a recognized education institution.
  • You can coordinate two benefit plans to maximize your coverage, potentially reaching up to 100% coverage! Find out more Coordination of Benefits.
  • The Student Health Plan is mandatory. Therefore, there is no Health Plan Opt-Out.
  • If you opt out of the dental plan, you are still considered to have access to dental insurance, which makes you ineligible for the Canadian Dental Care Plan (CDCP).
  • Approval of the Student Dental Opt-Out application will result in the plan fee being refunded to the bank account you indicated on your form approximately 10 weeks from the start of the semester.
  • 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.
