Health Services Fees:
In addition to the academic fee, any Canadian citizen or landed immigrant taking three or more credits in the Fall/Winter Session will be required to pay a non-refundable health services fee of $20. Students paying the international (visa) student fee must pay the non-refundable health services fee regardless of the number of courses taken.

This fee covers the operating costs of the health facilities on campus. Residents of Quebec may be eligible for OHIP coverage and should inquire at Health Services for details.

U.H.I.P:
As of July 1, 1994, foreign students were no longer covered by OHIP. Therefore, all foreign students are required to pay for the mandatory health insurance plan UHIP (University Health Insurance Plan). Single Person Rate for 12 months September to August 2003 $713.73. For detailed information relating to this plan contact Brock's Health Services.

Health Insurance Fee (BUSU):
As a result of the referendum in Spring 2001, the Brock University Students' Union (BUSU) is now offering an extended Health Plan to all students who are enrolled in the equivalent of 3 or more full credits in September and are contributing to BUSU fees. This program is mandatory and provides coverage for 80% of prescription drugs and a variety of other physio and chiropractic programs. Details of the Health Plan can be found on the BUSU website (http://www.busu.net) or at the Health Plan office located in the Students' Center.

The fee for the plan is $115 (subject to change). Students that already have comparable coverage will have the opportunity to waive this fee (details of this process are available on-line as well). It is each student's responsibility to determine their status with regards to the BUSU extended Health Care Plan; be sure to make an informed decision.
