ARRIVAL INFORMATION

Health Insurance

Massachusetts' law requires that all full-time students enroll in a qualifying health insurance plan, or certify that they have comparable coverage under another plan. It is imperative that you complete the Health Insurance enrollment/waiver process by going to University Health Plans by July 25. You can read and/or print the health insurance brochure, as well as either enroll in or waive the insurance online (you can only waive the insurance if you have comparable insurance). For further questions please contact your student account advisor:

Students' immunization records must be reviewed and cleared by a nurse in the Health Services Department before registration for classes is permitted. You will be notified if you need further vaccines. We recommend that you obtain all vaccines prior to coming to Clark because the cost of vaccines in Massachusetts can range between $60-$90. If you have questions regarding immunizations, please contact Clark University Health Services directly at 508-793-7467. More information.
