Graduate Students

Your health is essential to achieving your goals at Cornell. Access to health care and adequate health insurance are essential to your health. Without adequate coverage, unexpected medical expenses could alter your future dramatically. That is why Cornell is proud to offer the Student Health Insurance Plan (SHIP), designed by Cornellians, for Cornellians, to provide the coverage and protection you need.  

The University’s policy of enrolling all students in the SHIP demonstrates its commitment to student health and well-being. Our experience over many years of working with Cornell students makes it clear that this policy serves students well. During your years at Cornell, we are confident that you will appreciate the coverage provided by the SHIP and the peace of mind that comes from being well-insured. 

SHIP benefits

Please review carefully the benefits included in the SHIP and in any other program you might consider to decide what coverage will be best for you.

The SHIP has been developed especially for Cornell students (and dependents) to provide access to convenient and efficient care that complements the quality health services offered on campus and coverage for members anywhere in the world.
