International undergraduate students will be default enrolled into the Drexel University Dragon Plan. The premium amount for this plan will be placed on your student account. The only plan accepted in lieu of this plan will be Government-sponsored coverage. If you have a Government-sponsored insurance plan, you must submit proof of this once you arrive at the University by bringing a copy of your sponsored health insurance card to our office in Creese Student Center, room 215, by the posted deadline date. It is your responsibility to do this, and if you do not bring this verification to our office by the compliance deadline date, the premium amount will remain on your student account and you will be responsible for payment. This process must be completed each academic year.
