Annual Health and Hospitalization Premium
- All full-time Northwestern students are required to maintain health insurance that meets University standards. To help students obtain the required insurance, the University has contracted with Aetna Student Health. Information about the Aetna plan is available at www.aetnastudenthealth.com. Under “Students” select “Find Your School” and specify either Northwestern University or policy number 812845.
- You may also contact the Health Insurance Office on either campus:
Evanston: 633 Emerson Street; Phone 847-491-2113
Chicago: 357 East Chicago Avenue (Law School, room 131); Phone 312-503-1242
- Online enrollment for full-time students is available through CAESAR from July 1 through October 1.
- Application for coverage for spouses and dependents must be made to Aetna Student Health during the open enrollment period that will end October 31. Go to www.aetnastudenthealth.com; under “Students” select “Find Your School” and specify either Northwestern University or policy number 812845; then select “Plans & Products Offered to You” and “Online Dependent Enrollment.”

New Students
All new full-time students must log into CAESAR to enroll in or opt out of Aetna Student Health coverage. Under “For Students,” select “Enrollment” and “Health Coverage Plan” and choose the appropriate option. Students who do not opt out of the Aetna Student Health Plan by completing the online Coverage Selection Form will be billed for one year’s enrollment.
-
International Students
As of September 1, 2010, Northwestern University has mandated that all international students enroll in the Aetna Student Health Plan. An “international student” is defined as a holder of an F-1 or J-1 US visa, for which full-time student status is required. International students do not use the online Coverage Selection Form and may not waive or opt out of the Aetna Student Health Plan; charges for the Aetna Plan are automatically billed to the student’s account. International students with private health insurance may make a one-time request for evaluation of their coverage; for more information, see “Incoming International Students” at www.nuhs.northwestern.edu/evanston/insurance.aspx.
