Resolving a Health Insurance Block:

If you have a Health Insurance block when you begin to register in WebAdvisor you need to do the following:

• Click on the “Health Insurance Selection” item in the “Financial Profile” section of WebAdvisor
• Click on the arrow next to “Health Insurance Choice”
• A drop down window with a list of options will appear (listed below are statuses for GTU HIPS):

To select a health insurance plan, click on the type of coverage you want    

• S = Student
• SS = Student & Spouse
• SC = Student & Child(ren)
• F = Student & Family
• If you have your own insurance, select W = Waived Out
• If insurance does not apply to you, select NA = Not Applicable
• If your school offers a plan other than HIPS, select O = Other Insurance offered by School
• Click on the appropriate status
• Click on submit.

This process will remove the block and allow you to register.  For those students whose schools require them to certify health insurance by submitting either (1) an enrollment form (HIPS or Other) or (2) proof of other insurance and a waiver form (HIPS or Other), the certification form must be submitted to the proper office no later than the end of the second week of classes.  If you select HIPS, you cannot be covered until the enrollment form has been received. Coverage starts September 1st. 

The Health Insurance for Students (HIPS) page has more information about the HIPS program and enrollment procedure.

ENROLLING OR WAIVING FOR HIPS IN THE FALL MEANS YOU ARE ALSO AUTOMATICALLY ENROLLED OR WAIVED FOR HIPS FOR THE SPRING
