The University of Portland requires all undergraduate students taking 12 or more credit hours to carry medical insurance comparable to that offered under the school’s student health insurance plan.

All UP students are automatically enrolled in the student health insurance plan through PacificSource Health Plan. If your student already has health insurance coverage, they should complete and submit a Health Insurance Waiver or they will be responsible for paying the $1,676.50 premium for the student health insurance plan through PacificSource. This waiver needs to be completed each semester.

Details about health insurance and the Health Insurance Waiver can be found on this page; please note that the PacificSource waiver form should be updated and available by July 16 for students to complete and submit.

Students do not need to be enrolled in the student health insurance plan through PacificSource to be seen at the Student Health Center.  

For more details on insurance and billing, visit the Billing & Insurance section on the Student Accounts FAQ page.
