ATTENTION HUSKIES: THIS UPCOMING SUNDAY (September 15) is the last day that you can waive the UConn Health Insurance from your fall 2024 fee bill.

If you already have health insurance and don’t need health insurance from UConn, then please waive this fee before the end of September 15th, as this is a VERY strict deadline. If you do not wave this fee, you will be responsible for paying it entirely. Make some time this weekend to avoid this $3,000 extra fee! 💰
