Insurance

All full-time Luther Seminary students are required to have medical insurance. If you are not currently on a group plan you can register for student insurance at www.eiiassip.org.  We DO NOT automatically enroll students in the health insurance.

Students on a qualifying group plan should go to www.eiiassip.org to waive the student medical insurance at no cost. 

Students taking less than a full-time course load and wishing to be on the insurance may go to www.eiiassip.org to enroll in a plan.
