LewerMark Student Medical Insurance
Highline College cares about your health. If you are an F-1 visa holder and you are on Highline’s I-20, you are required to purchase medical insurance through the college. International students pay for medical insurance with their tuition each quarter. Health insurance is managed by LewerMark Student Insurance.
The cost is currently $405.00 per quarter, effective Winter 2024. Rates are subject to change. Highline College automatically applies the fee to your school account when you register for classes (if you are an F-1 student).
Why is health insurance mandatory? The cost of healthcare in the United States is extremely expensive. You must have medical insurance to protect yourself from these high costs.
NOTE: In general, students who are studying from outside of the US are not eligible for, and therefore are not required to pay for, medical insurance coverage. Please contact ISP staff if you have questions about your specific situation.
