International students are not required to purchase the health insurance plan that is offered through UCF. However, the UCF plan by Aetna Student Health does meet the criteria set by State of Florida officials and is recommended. Other medical insurance plans that meet the criteria and requirements are acceptable. International students are encouraged not to purchase the plan with the lowest cost if it does not provide adequate benefits if you happen to get sick or injured. The International Services Center (phone: 407.823.2337) has a list of alternative insurance companies for you to consider.
