thetm meÌìÃÀ´«Ã½SU Supplemental Health & Dental Insurance (for all students)

thetm meÌìÃÀ´«Ã½SU founded their Supplemental Health & Dental Insurance through a student referendum. It is a plan established by students for students.

• Full-time students are automatically ‘opted in’, i.e. the plan is mandatory for students in thetm meÌìÃÀ´«Ã½’s regular programs of 20 weeks or more regardless of the program delivery method (blended, online, etc.). Students who are new to the plan will have a validation period of between 45 and 60 days. During this time, benefits can be accessed but must be held until the validation period has passed. After the validation period, new students are activated to the plan. 
• Part-time students are not eligible for coverage under this insurance plan.
• Students may ‘opt-out’ of this coverage upon provision of proof of alternate (equivalent) insurance coverage. If you have proof of comparable extended coverage, you must apply to ‘opt out’ of the plan prior to thetm meÌìÃÀ´«Ã½’s deadline (refer to Academic Calendar for dates) using the . Provincial health plans are not comparable coverage, as they do not include all the benefit categories included in the student plan. Please note the Medicare and/or Guard Me plans are designed to complement the thetm meÌìÃÀ´«Ã½SU insurance and cannot be used to "opt-out" of the supplemental health & dental insurance. If you are an international student looking for information on opting out of guard.me, visit .
• Additional coverage for spouse and/or dependents is available (refer to Academic Calendar for deadline dates). You will have one opportunity to purchase family coverage for your spouse and/or dependent(s) by submitting an application form to the Student Benefits Representative.
