Health Insurance Requirement

Health insurance is mandatory for all full-time undergraduate domestic and international students taking 12 or more credits at Iona University. The health insurance charge is automatically billed to each student’s account. To assist students with managing this requirement, Aetna has been selected to administer the Student Health Insurance Plan. Students who have alternative comparable health insurance coverage can waive out of Iona’s Student Health Insurance Plan. Alternatively, students can also select to enroll in the plan. Please submit your online waiver at www.aetnastudenthealth.com. You can download your insurance card by logging into www.aetnastudenthealth.com. The plan is effective 8/1/2024 – 7/31/2025.

All health insurance waiver requests will be reviewed by Aetna within three (3) business days. If a waiver is approved, an email confirmation will be sent to the student and the charge on the PeopleSoft account will be removed. Please allow 3-5 business days for the charge to be reversed. If a waiver is denied, an email notification will be sent stating the reason for denial. The charge will remain on the student account until an approved waiver has been received. The deadline to submit the health insurance waiver and all required supplements is September 20, 2024.
