At this time I only have info on the insurance for international
students. The Director of our International Student and Scholar
Services says: "The bid was won by Relation Education Solutions.
The insurance policy is with GeoBlue. Students pay $357 per
quarter unless they have dependents. The full cost for all 4
quarters is $1,428."<br>
<br>
I hope to get some info about options available for US citizens
soon and will pass that along.<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>
Ramu<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">My question is about the cost of student
health insurance. Setting aside whether your University pays
a portion or not, what is the cost of the plan, is that cost a
per semester or per AY or per CY, and who is the provider? For
instance, the cost at LSU is about $2800 per AY (summer is
extra) and the provider is Gallagher (underwritten by United
Healthcare Insurance). And yes this is a hot topic at LSU,
particularly for our international students.<o:p></o:p></p>
