There are two ways students at CU Boulder can meet the health insurance requirement:
If you do not have private health insurance or want comprehensive coverage on and off campus, you can enroll in the CU Gold SHIP.
This plan provides a full year of coverage for Health and Wellness Services as well as coverage locally and nationally.
Enroll in the CU Gold SHIP for $1,948 per semester.
If you already have health insurance coverage through an individual, family or employer plan, you must submit proof of insurance through an online waiver application and be approved.
CU Boulder Health and Wellness Services accepts most major insurance plans for care provided on campus and through telehealth.

Designed specifically for students with private health insurance coverage, the BuffCare Supplemental Coverage Program helps cover out-of-pocket expenses for medical services provided on campus after your primary insurance has been billed.
