health insurance

As a Fullerton College international student, you are required to have health insurance coverage from the college. You will not be able to register for classes until you purchase our health insurance.

When to pay for health insurance:

New students: Pay for health insurance after your academic orientation and before registration.

Continuing students: Pay for health insurance at least three business days before your registration date and time.

Please note: if you pay health insurance fees right before your registration date and time, we cannot guarantee that the health insurance hold will be released from your account by the time you need to register. Please plan ahead to avoid any further delay!

How to pay for health insurance:
1. Enroll on-line (credit card) OR
2. Enroll in person at the ISC (check or credit card)

The insurance mandated by Fullerton is NLIC Insurance Corporation. This policy provides for your basic health and accident care, prescriptions, and vaccinations as well as Global Emergency Medical Assistance exclusively for you as an international student.
