Show Proof of Health Insurance
The University of Texas Board of Regents has passed Regents Rule 50402, which now requires only F1, F2, J1, J2 students, who are currently enrolled at UT Schools to have medical insurance compliant with the federal Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (PPACA). The UT- Student Health Insurance Plan (UT-SHIP) meets these requirements, and enrollment is automatic. Or you can show proof of a private insurance plan to be unenrolled from UT- SHIP.
