Case Sharing
2026/09/07

Every new school year, on-campus health insurance is a major unavoidable expense for international students in the US. It is expensive, comes with numerous restrictions, and has low daily usage, yet students are mandatorily required to enroll in it by their schools, so many students find it extremely poor value for money.

In fact, the vast majority of US colleges and universities offer health insurance waivers. As long as your off-campus health insurance meets the official standards set by the school, you can successfully replace the expensive campus insurance and save a large sum of money.

However, the Waiver review is extremely strict, and even a minor detail error will lead to an immediate rejection: mismatched terms, incomplete materials, incorrect timing, filling mistakes. .. Every year, a large number of applicants unfortunately fail to get approved.

This is the 6th Issue of Real Cases of Waiver for US Study Abroad Health Insurance, which compiles real waiver cases from multiple institutions including the University of Chicago. Relying on the compliant off-campus insurance plan of the OSHC platform, the program fits the waiver standards, and finally successfully completed the waiver without any pitfalls, providing you with a standard answer for waiver that can be directly replicated for your study in the US ✨
