Marymount Manhattan College
STUDENT HEALTH INSURANCE PLAN
2024-2025 Academic Year
Marymount Manhattan College (MMC) requires all students enrolled for 12 or more credits to have comprehensive health insurance that will cover them for sickness or injury they may suffer while they are attending school in New York City.
Plan Highlights
The 2024-2025 MMC Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP) is provided by UnitedHealthcare Student Resources. The plan is ACA compliant and includes access to a national PPO network of providers. Students do not have to select a primary care physician and referrals are not required.
MMC has partnered with University Health Plans to administer the plan and help with waiver, enrollment, or benefit-related questions. University Health Plans can be reached at 833-251-1711 or info@univhealthplans.com.

Waiver Process
If you are covered by a comprehensive health insurance plan you can opt-out of the MMC SHIP by completing the waiver form, located in the left-hand side navigation menu. Before waiving, compare the cost, coverage, and benefits of the SHIP to your existing plan. Please consider the following:
- Your plan must provide access to in-network doctors, hospitals, labs, pharmacies, and behavioral health providers in the MMC campus area.
- Out of state Medicaid and many HMO or EPO plans do not provide out-of-network coverage. Emergency only coverage does not meet the SHIP requirements.
If you do not submit a waiver form by the waiver deadline above, you will be enrolled in SHIP and responsible for the premium.
International Students
International students attending MMC on an F-1 Visa who are residing in the United States are required to maintain the MMC SHIP. You can access your health insurance ID card in the left-hand side navigation menu.
Qualifying Event Enrollment Process
Students who waived the SHIP may qualify for special enrollment rights if they incur an involuntary loss of other coverage. To request an enrollment form and premium quote, contact University Health Plans at 833-251-1711 or info@univhealthplans.com.
To enroll, you must submit an enrollment form, letter from your prior insurance company documenting your loss of coverage and payment within 30 days of the qualifying event. If all three items are received by the deadline coverage will be effective as of the first day without coverage under your prior plan.
