Health Insurance

All students must have a complete medical insurance policy when they are enrolled at Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder. Å·ÃÀ¿Ú±¬ÊÓƵ Boulder wants students to have financial security in case they experience a severe illness or injury while studying at the university. We are hopeful that having an insurance plan will assist them during these times, allowing them to continue their educational pursuits.
