Student Health Insurance
«Back to New Student Requirements
USC requires all students enrolled in 6 or more units to maintain health insurance coverage throughout the academic year, both to protect against unexpected high medical costs and to provide access to quality care while they are at school or traveling abroad with a USC program.
Please note: the Student Health Fee is a separate mandatory fee.
