All registered students taking credit hours—regardless of where you are—are automatically enrolled in and billed for the Berklee Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP) offered by Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts. 

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, waiver requirements have been relaxed for the spring semester only. You may be able to waive the SHIP with insurance that is otherwise not comparable depending on where you will be physically located. If you do not want the SHIP, you must take action. 

If you will be in Massachusetts for the spring 2021 semester, you will need to demonstrate that your own insurance plan is comparable to the SHIP, regardless of your citizenship. Please note that out-of-state HMOs, out-of-state Medicaid plans, and all international health plans are not comparable, and your request to waive the SHIP will be declined.

If you will not be in Massachusetts, but will be in the United States for the spring 2021 semester: 

• U.S. Citizens: You may be able to waive the SHIP with a plan that is not typically considered to be a comparable plan with the SHIP. These include out-of-state HMOs and out-of-state Medicaid plans. However, you will still need to demonstrate proof of coverage wherever you are located in order to request a waiver for the SHIP.

• Non-U.S. Citizens: All international health plans are not comparable, and your request to waive the SHIP will be declined.

If you will not be in the United States for the spring 2021 semester: 

• U.S. Citizens: You may be able to waive the SHIP with a plan that is not typically considered to be a comparable plan with the SHIP. These include out-of-state HMOs and out-of-state Medicaid plans. However, you will still need to demonstrate proof of coverage wherever you are located in order to request a waiver for the SHIP.

• Non-U.S. Citizens: You may be able to waive the SHIP with a plan that is not typically considered to be a comparable plan with the SHIP, such as international health plans or a government-sponsored health plan in your home country. However, you will still need to demonstrate proof of coverage wherever you are located in order to request a waiver for the SHIP.

If your request to waive the SHIP is approved, your bill will be updated.

If you will be taking classes in the spring 2021 semester while physically being in Massachusetts and you were able to waive the SHIP for spring 2021 with an out-of-state HMO, out-of-state Medicaid plan, or an international health plan, you will be billed for the SHIP on a prorated basis. Spring SHIP coverage runs from January 1, 2021, through August 14, 2021.
